REEN ISLAND High School in Hanover is not only celebrating its 50th anniversary, but also a momentous day of drama and excitement given by the Youthlink/Honey Bun High Achievers School Tour to the teachers, xiliary staff, and students. Located at Green Island, Lucea, the students were overwhelm- ingly receptive to all that was delivered to their doorsteps. Their enthusiasm even- tually encouraged the teachers and uxiliary staff to get in on the action — purchasing copies of Youthlink so that they could products. Smiling while embracing the opportunity, she willingly shared her sentiments with us. "Today's event at our school was exceptional! Its planning and execution was done well, and the event met our expectations of being highly entertaining and exciting. "For me ... the entertainment was superb! I think the children enjoyed themselves, as they got the opportunity to laugh and relax in the midst of pressure (SBA deadlines and exam preparations). Kudos to Youthlink and Honey Bun!"

“The tour was just what we needed to set the mood of a usually dull day. The kids loved it and their spirits were lifted high. I must say, we should have days like these every now and then. Thank you, Youthlink and Honey Bun, for the exciting break!” said library assistant Ms Rhoden.
Ms Rhoden was also highly interactive – singing and dancing along with her students. This season’s tour is scheduled to run from mid-January until the end of February 2020, and is sponsored by Squeezz and Sparkling CranWATA.
