The Freetown Secondary School for Girls (FSSG) was founded on January 20, 1926. From its location in Freetown, the capital of Sierra Leone, it has successfully educated thousands of girls across Africa.
Unlike other schools of its time, the school has a unique beginning as one of the first non-parochial, non-governmental schools started by Africans. This was the dream of the late Mrs. Hannah Benka-Coker, its founder and first vice principal.
This historic Founder’s Day is celebrated every year in the homeland as well as the diaspora by current pupils, staff, and alumni alike.
