PZ celebrates Day with Tema Parents Association School
Tema, Oct. 16, GNA – Three pupils of Tema Parents Association School in Community 6 who excelled in an Essay Competition organised by PZ to mark the Global Hand Washing Day, were yesterday presented with their prizes at a ceremony in the School.
Nine-year-old Maame Ohenewaa Baah, a Class Four pupil placed first with Michael Mitchell, 10, of Class Five and Sena Mensah, 8, of Class Three emerging as the first and second runners-up respectively.
For their prizes, each award winner received a certificate and some products from the company.
Speaking at the function, Mr Eben Akyeampong, Brand Manager of PZ, said Global Hand Washing Day which falls on October 15 of every year, is a public/private partnership to help promote healthy lifestyles.
He said the Day was instituted in 2001 to give families, schools and communities in developing countries the power to reduce and prevent the incidence of diarrhoea and respiratory infections by supporting the promotion and practice of proper hand washing with soap.
He said the public/private partnership is basically to promote hand washing with soap as hygiene, good sanitation and water are recognised as pillars needed for a healthy lifestyle.
Mr Akyeampong said Carex, a sanitizer product of the company, is the biggest and most recognised hand care soap used in the UK and several other countries in the world.
He said Carex kills all germs faster than other brands on the market leaving the hand smelling nice several hours after use.
Mr Kwaku Agyekum, Headmaster of the School, thanked PZ for celebrating the Day with the pupils and pledged the school’s preparedness to ensure that the pupils observe sound hygienic practices to help keep them healthy and strong at all times.
