–in a riot of heady colour
–Road Parade set for Saturday
WITH just one more day left in the Georgetown leg of the Children’s Mashramani Competition, we saw the nursery and primary schools dominating the costume competition on Thursday at the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall.

Their creativity and use of our folklore were brought to life in their displays as they masqueraded around that sporting complex.

It was, however, disappointing to see the limited entries for this year’s competition among the secondary schools.

The final instalment of this competition will see all the administrative regions vying for supremacy Saturday in the Children’s Costume Road Parade.

They will assemble at Parade Ground on Middle Street, and proceed north along Camp Street, then east into Lamaha Street and north into Albert Street, before finally making their way into the National Park for judging.

The Unit of Allied Arts and the Ministry of Education are again imploring drivers and spectators to take note of the route and to be extra careful on this date, as our children will be occupying the roadways.
