2008 Cayman Islands National Educational Conference

l-r Ms. E. Foster-Allen & Ms. W. Hill

GTPS staff recently attended the 2008 Cayman Islands National Educational Conference at Mary Miller Hall in Red Bay. There, we were joined by government education officials, all educators from the public primary and secondary schools, as well as representatives of our island's private schools.

Educators had the opportunity to attend a pre-conference gala event, a variety of workshops, a vendor's marketplace, as well as presentations by government education officials and ministers.

Ms. Elaine Foster-Allen, Principal of Shortwood Teacher's College in Jamaica delivered the conference's keynote address. Ms. Foster-Allen was enthusiastically met by all educators, but particularly by our own librarian, Ms. Willean Hill, having previously worked together in London, England many years ago.
