LOW LEVELS of participation in the Literary Challenge 2013 Story Writing Competition has prompted Deputy Chief Education officer David Clement to call on all schools to encourage students to participate in the programme.
Yesterday at the awards ceremony, Clement said: “Activities such as these are conceptualised… with the view of assisting schools in the process of delivering the curriculum to the students. While we are grateful and happy for the participation for the schools which responded positively, we eagerly look forward to the time when the response is better than it is at present.”
The winners were Shania Williams of St Albans Primary in the upper juniors category while Kiara Grazette of St Catherine’s Primary won in the lower juniors. They were presented with their prizes this morning at the Ministry of Education’s Elsie Payne Complex. (LK)
