Those managing our country’s resources never cease to stun me
Dear Editor,
The so-called highly qualified individuals that manage our resources in this country never cease to stun me.
The latest evidence of their incompetence is the construction of a parking lot for GRA’s office on a vacant lot next to St. Margaret’s Primary School.
I was at the school for a meeting at 3:00 pm and the excavators with their tremendous noise were a true nuisance, hence, I could imagine what the children and teachers experienced during the day.There is a nursery school at rear of the compound also and the sand keeps dispersing during the day. My child developed a terrible cough as a result.
I would presume that the parking lot required urgency, since it couldn’t wait to be constructed during the Easter school-closed period. However, what I really want to stress on is the fact that St. Margaret’s Primary School has classroom cluster problems along with other schools in Georgetown, in addition to the unavailability of a playground, and yet the vacant lot right next to the school is being utilised for a mere parking lot.
You may recall that Sacred Heart Primary was burnt down since 2004, and to date there are no plans to construct another school, but rather, the solution is to overcrowd existing schools in Georgetown and make more parking lots, effectively providing a better future for cars.
