Speakers like MP Dr. Sonia Browne and Reverend Elsworth Howell reminded them that character and determination shape destiny more than destination, urging them to embrace challenges, learn from failure, and dream boldly. Beyond grades, the school honored athletic and creative wins, with plans to revive the school farm and steelpan orchestra—calling on the community to help. As they head into secondary school, students were encouraged to stay curious, read widely, and lead with kindness. The ceremony ended on a high note with the school’s motto: “Only the best is good enough”—a rallying cry for the next chapter of their lives.
