SEA COWS BAY, Tortola, VI- The Eslyn Henley Richez Learning Centre (EHRLC) will be hosting a special event that will allow its students to be ambassadors.

Principal, Ms Vansittart C.C. Huggins said the centre is hosting the Mr and Miss Eslyn Henley Richiez Learning Centre’ to choose student ambassadors who will represent the school for the 2023- 2024 school year.

Three girls and six boys have entered the competition and each student will solicit votes and the student with the most votes will be awarded the title, a press release from Government Information Service (GIS) today, June 8, 2023, informed.

Students to solicit funds from community

“Parents were given a letter and a sponsor sheet from the school to solicit funds from the community, with each vote valuing $1.00,” Ms Huggins said, adding, “The funds received will help to go towards activities at the school such as field trips in the Territory and overseas.”

The Principal said each participant will be awarded in a tangible way during the Award Ceremony on June 20 at 1:00 PM.

Mr & Miss EHRLC will also receive special awards during the school year.

The public is asked to support the students in this endeavor.

According to the GIS press release, EHRLC provides quality special education; emphasising individual growth, self-esteem and respect for all. Students in turn are expected to become acceptable and productive citizens of the community.

    A wonderful project. If I don’t see a sponsor sheet, can I drop a check for votes at the school? Are they still near Red Cross?

    It's not exploiting! it giving the children the courage and self worth that they can do anything regardless of their disabilities and it build self-esteem.

    I am so happy to see this happening. Thank you to the supporters for highlighting our young people. They are often looked down as being being retarded but, they are precious gems created by God. I always say to people that some persons are born with disabilities while others are (in their sight) flawless. However, one accident or illness can change our entire lives, so, please be kind to them. Congratulations to them all. God loves you all.
