 The annual Grosillais top achievers award ceremony has put a smile on the faces of many students, parents and teachers. Rojvaro Lawrence reports. Top achievers from the constituency of Grosillais have been awarded for their successes. The ninth annual Grosillais top achievers ceremony recognized the outstanding academic performances of students from the constituency in the common entrance examinations. Paliamentary representative for Grosillais the Honourable Leonard Montout congratulated the top achieving students on a job well done and spoke of the importance of recognizing the youth and their achievements. This annual ceremony is very significant to me because I am one who believes in accentuating the positives about our youth, our young people. And when they do good, when they perform well, I think they have to be celebrated, they have to be given due recognition and the praise that they deserve. I think that in itself serves as a further motivation and encouragement to them as well as an inspiration to others to at least pursue excellence and to aim to do better in the future. I am hoping to that when we present them, we present them as models to their peers that the peers can emulate and so I think it's all around a positive because we too often only speak of the negative things about our young people but there's a lot to celebrate among our youth and I think whenever we get the opportunity we profit that opportunity and this is one occasion when we take pleasure in doing so annually. This year's top achievers from Grosillais are as follows. The Common Entrance Exams, Christian George, Thierry Morrill, Brianne Seady and Kyle Chaus. Also in receipt of special awards for second place are Eva George, Menelik Nurse, Brielle Anson and Zohan Orillier. The top achievers were rewarded with laptops and plaques for their exemplary performances. Top Achiever Thierry Morrill expressed gratitude to the parliamentary representative on behalf of the achievers. Despite the current economic climate due to COVID-19, the achievements of the youth definitely did not go unnoticed. We are therefore most overjoyed at the recognition. Our gifts will definitely be used to assist us in our educational journey. I would like to express my gratitude towards the many persons who worked tirelessly to ensure that this event was successfully executed. We the recipients are grateful for the acknowledgement of our efforts as this year's top Common Entrance Achievers of our respective schools. Sidney J. Harris says and I quote, the windows are open, the opportunities await. It's up to us now to use our new devices and the skills, values and knowledge acquired thus far to take us to a higher level. The Grosillais constituency top achievers awards took place on Tuesday, August 18th at the Grosillais Human Resource Centre. From the Government Information Service, I am Rog Varro-Laurin reporting.
