On Monday of this week, March 09, the IHS Alumni Association presented to the school a brand new refrigerator and a quantity of “spikes” – shoes used by track and field athletes.

The refrigerator is expected to support and facilitate smoother operations of the school’s feeding programme, and was made possible through the kind and generous support of alumni Tyrone Creese and Brian Hadaway, and friend of the Association – Aaron Crichton.

And while the “spikes” were provided at this time with the school’s participation in the imminent Inter-Secondary Schools Athletics Championship, they are set for use by the athletes in their training and general athletic development.

The donation of the “spikes” was made possible through the generous support of alumni Michael Hadaway, Donna Findlay, Sharon Mitchell, Ansley Primus and Rohan Providence, and James Cordice, renowned for his ongoing facilitation of opportunities for young Vincentian athletes in the USA, and a friend of the Association.

The Association, meanwhile, is looking forward to making, in the not too distant future, another contribution to the music programme of the school.  A contribution of equipment to the programme was made earlier this year, by alumnus Harold “Ploomie” Lewis, renowned musician/bassist.

Lewis has indicated his willingness to help with further equipping the “music room” (programme) plan for which will be made known in an exclusive interview with THE VINCENTIAN.
