Countess of Wessex visits two schools

A MEMBER OF THE British Royal family – Sophie, Countess of Wessex – today visited two schools for special children on her visit to Barbados.
During the 90-minute tour, she chatted with children and educators at the Ann Hill School and the nearby Irving Wilson School, which cater to youths with disabilities.
At one school, children greeted her with a popular Michael Jackson song Heal The World and at the other several students performed to Mighty Gabby’s hit Emmerton, using sign language.
At both schools, the Countess of Wessex received a gift from the students which included a photo and a gift basket containing a leather purse, a necklace and ceramic wind chimes. (TY)
