Mfantsipim School celebrated its 150th anniversary with the unveiling of several infrastructure projects and a memorial park. The sesquicentennial celebrations took place at Victoria Park on Friday, November 13, 2026, with alumni and community members gathering to commemorate the school's rich history. The festivities began with a ceremonial parade honoring the institution's heritage and the contributions of generations of students, teachers, and alumni.
A significant aspect of the projects was the Sesquicentennial Memorial Park, dedicated to the founders, former headmasters, teachers, students, alumni, benefactors, and other individuals who have played a role in shaping the school's development. The park includes a fountain featuring the names of distinguished personalities and a walkway lined with 150 signatures representing the people behind the school's history.
Other upgrades included the refurbishment of the popular PATO resting and refreshment center, which now features a chessboard for students to enjoy. Additionally, the Faithful 8 Monument, commemorating eight students who stayed behind to support teaching and learning during a challenging period in the school's history, has undergone renovations.
