CONSTITUENCY REPRESENTATIVE for St John Mara Thompson is calling on Government to amalgamate two primary schools in her rural constituency.

Speaking in the House of Assembly this morning on the 2015-2016 Estimates, the backbencher and Deputy Speaker said she had visited two sites and determined that one of them could accommodate the new school that would house the students of St John’s Primary and the children from the catchment area that Society Primary served.

She said she had engaged the Minister of Education on the matter. (JS)
