Line 175: === School anthem === {{Wikisource\|Index:Pope John Anthem.pdf\|O Great Pojomma Arise and Shine}} After years of existence without any official school anthem, Rev. Fr. Burke [[Societas Verbi Divini\|SVD]] (headmaster from 1985- to 1995) began the process for the school acquiring one. This was also partly influenced by the fact that though a young institution, Pojoss had already begun to claim many laurels and perform excellently on the educational scene of [[Ghana]]. In 1997, he asked a student, who was also a member of the school choir to compose an anthem for the school. The student was Master Anthony Barnieh. Anthony's composition ("O Great Pojomma Arise and Shine") was submitted and was immediately adopted as the official school anthem. It was first performed by the school's choir in 1998. Today Mr. Barnieh is a teacher of social sciences in Pope John and the music director for the school choir and all musical groups in the school. Additionally, he is the founder and director of one of the best choirs in Ghana. Early in the first decade of the twenty-first century, the monument of the Sacred Heart was dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus under the chaplaincy of Rev. Fr. Justine Mensah and Master Emmanuel Obeng Codjoe (now a [[Catholic]] priest). The need for a song to the Sacred Heart arose and this was the ode chosen to pay respect to [[Jesus Christ]]. History, however, indicates that it was composed and used as an anthem by the school long before the introduction of "O Great Pojomma Arise and Shine".
