The School Fees Ledger
Client: St. Mary's Senior HighSecondary school · Cape Coast
Bursar's office, St. Mary's Senior High, Cape Coast · Gentle, a little nostalgic
In 2011 St. Mary's computer club built the school's fees ledger as a project. It still runs. Every column uses a different 'code' the students invented, and Mr. Quaye has term reports due.
