Like mother; like daughter

THE?APPLE?OBVIOUSLY didn’t fall far from the tree at Charles F Broome Primary this time around.
The school’s top girl, Jaimie-Lynn Gibson, followed in the footsteps of her sister and her mother when she emerged as one of the top students in this year’s Common Entrance Examination.
It was an especially special day for the 11-year-old Gibson, who along with St Winifred’s Kacie Corbin and Yohance Lewis, finished tied for the top spot with an overall score of 248.77 A.
By the time a NATION team arrived at the school, Jaimie-Lynn, who will be attending Harrison College come September and her ecstatic mother, Carol Nicholls, a former Barbados Scholar, were already in a celebratory mood.
