TRIBUTE AND CHALLENGE TO COLLEAGUE TEACHERS

I am delighted to be participating in this function this afternoon. Three years ago it was my privilege as president of the Jamaica Teachers Association to have participated as a “mid-husband” at the birth of the idea of Teachers’ Day. The late Honourable Glen Owen and Miss Coleen Ho of the Jamaica Chambers of Commerce, Mr Woodburn Miller Secretary-General and myself of the JTA met to consider ways in which our organizations could take practical steps to promote wider recognition of the work and worth of teachers, promote teaching as a career among young people and inspire teachers in service to continue the arduous work and not to despair.

NOTHING WITHOUT HARD LABOUR

Mr Master of Ceremonies, Mr President and members of the Executive, honoured guests, distinguished members of the head-table, ladies and gentlemen, you have afforded my wife and myself a great privilege by allowing us to share this occasion with you. Accept our heartfelt thanks. Speaking personally I must immediately confess that I belong to the ranks of the underprivileged, by virtue of not having attended York Castle High School.
