Eleven year-old Victoria Harry of Port Mourant copped the top prize when the winner of the Rose Hall Town Youth and Sports Club 20th Anniversary Essay Competition was announced on Wednesday last.
Harry was chosen from among dozens of students who submitted essays on the topic ‘Why Education and Sports is important to me’.
Amy Khemraj of No.1 Road, Corentyne won the runner up spot while Yadram Latchana of Ankerville was third. The essay competition was organised by the club’s Farfan and Mendes Under-15 and Pepsi Under-19 cricket teams. Ms. Harry in her winning essay stated that in today’s modern world where technology is central to everything, a person without education would find it very difficult to succeed. Sports, she said assists youths to be disciplined and to develop positive traits; patience, hard work and how to be a team player.
Public Relations Office of the RHTY&SC, Moonish Singh, and Under-15 Captain, Shawn Perriera, congratulated the winners and expressed gratitude to all of the students who submitted essays.
Ms. Harry received $10,000 worth of gifts and a trophy while the runners up received gifts that included educational materials and indoor sports gear.
