Teachers paid surprise visit during ‘Back to School Drive’
The initiative started on September 3, 2016 in Cane Garden Bay where teachers were presented with starter kits and free dinner at the Paradise Club Road Side Bar and Grill.
The kind gesture was extended to September 16, 2016 when members of the various entities visited the Alexandrina Maduro Primary School, Althea Scatliffe Primary School and Ivan Dawson Primary School.
The members went from classroom to classroom presenting the teachers with various materials to aid their work.
Grateful past students
President of TRW Dr Carl O. Dawson said he remembers the teachers of his primary school (Althea Scatliffe) who were a vital part of his journey to becoming a doctor.
“Some of the teachers are still there like Mrs Shirley Martin and Mrs Marieta Headley, Mrs Javelin Nisbett. This was just a small contribution to them to remind them that their past students still care and appreciate what a fine job they did and continue to do,” Dr Dawson said.
Mr Al Brewley, owner of Paradise Club in Cane Garden Bay, said he remembered when Mrs Martin taught him in Enid Scatliffe Primary School and that she was a wonderful teacher. He said he was pleased to see Mrs Martin continuing to touch the children’s heart and minds and shape their education.
Mr Brewley added that without his primary and preschool teachers he wouldn’t be an upstanding proud business owner today.
Akyia Brewley of Akyia Brewley Design said she attended Alexandrina Maduro Primary School and Mrs Coval Cruickshank is still there spreading her beautiful cheerful education on the children. She was delighted to see and present a gift to Mrs Cruickshank for her years of hard work and dedication to the school.
TRW, Paradise Club and Akiya Brewley Designs are hoping that this can be a yearly presentation to the teachers to show their worth and appreciation from the community.

You so want to down grade the young lady that you have displayed hate rather than constructive criticism... So sad!
Don't get me wrong, we have to be professionals in whatever we do but people in this VI love to display their hatred for another, this article was not even about the young lady and you made it about her! Her a$$ is not out, her bossum is fully covered and the dress is knee length, who knows she may have taken off her jacket because the place is hot or they appeared in the middle of an activity! What ever the circumstances were we are not previewed to it! The people who are using this opportunity to take swipes at her could NEVER go around her playing! So be the little cowards that you are and stay hidden. There is a saying when you dig a whole dig 2! The next one is for you!
Irrelevant!!!!
