LIME Internet Summer School 2015 a huge success

No rain could keep the many students from attending this year’s closing ceremony for the 2015 LIME Internet Summer School. The event was held at the LIME compound located in Arnos Vale and was well attended.

LIME country manager Wayne Hull delivered remarks to the beaming students and pointed out that this is LIME’s 11th year for the Internet Summer School.{{more}}

“We have in the past extended this opportunity to several communities in the rural parts of St Vincent and the Grenadines.

You have our commitment to not only continue this programme next year, but extend our reach again to the rural

communities.”

Tutor for this year K Hamilton was welcomed with much enthusiasm by the children. She commented on her experience of tutoring so many children in this age group for the first time.

“It was indeed a challenge, but it was very rewarding, especially when at the end of the week students were quizzed and I realized they were really learning.”

This year, eight students were given a special gift from LIME for being the most outstanding students in their class. They were: Zabdiel Searles, Shelton Knights, Precious O’Garro, Ricky Patterson, T-Roy Peters, Paul Jr O’Garro, Fayth Cambridge and Jonte Smith.

LIME Marketing & Corporate Communications manager Nikala Williams said, “Hearing how ecstatic the kids are about the class makes me want to be a kid again! Thanks again to our partners Unicomer SVG Ltd and Frank B Armstrong/Better Brands for their continued support.”

Nikala also mentioned that the video made by the children will be available for viewing on the LIME Facebook page.

The Internet Summer School is among the many activities performed by LIME in their corporate support of education and the development of our youths here in St Vincent and the Grenadines.

LIME will host its very first “Back to School Fair” on Monday, August 31 at the LIME location in Kingstown, starting from 8 a.m.

Children of LIME patrons will be treated to free haircuts and hairstyles, free back to school supplies, including the popular LIME school bag, free medical checks to include eye, ear, hygiene, nutrition and BMI, free sampling and more. LIME invites all to come out and enjoy the day with them.
