Future Generation Senior Secondary School won the Funneh Board Game match at Girls' Pride Gambia. The game tested what students knew.
The game marked the last part of a project by Girls' Pride Gambia. It was part of their Women's Empowerment work called #Play2Educate. The French Embassy in The Gambia and Senegal gave money for it, and Alliance Francaise de Banjul helped run it.
The project taught school leaders and students about health matters for girls and made them aware of acts that hurt women and girls at school.
Ten schools came into play: Mindaw, Future Generation, Abuko, Tallinding, Unity, Kombo Kerewan, Brufut, Jabang, and Yundum Barrack Senior Schools.
Players went through three parts of the game. It took three hours. Future Generation Senior School came first. Gunjur Senior School took second place. Jabang Senior School came third.
Each school went home with a prize and paper to show they played. The top three schools got special gifts.
Justine Guschlbauer leads Alliance Francaise De Banjul. She said hello to all who came. She praised Girls' Pride Gambia for their hard work in bringing schools from many places to play at Alliance Francaise.
Landing Sonko from the school office spoke at the beginning and end. Other leaders, such as Massaneh Camara and Musa Wally, shared their thoughts.
Solene Liangie of Alliance Francaise told all schools they did well. She gave extra praise to the three schools that won.
Teachers liked the game a lot. They asked Girls' Pride Gambia to make more games like this. They thanked those who gave money to help run it.
The Funneh Board Game helps teach things that people find hard to talk about. It makes it fun to learn about girl health matters that parents and kids often do not discuss.
