REAPing together
To promote an ongoing environmental awareness in schools, the Sandals Foundation has once again partnered with the LASCO Releaf Environmental Awareness Programme (REAP) Competition. The western programme which was launched on Friday, November 1, at John Rollins Success Primary School has targeted over 100 schools with a view to creating a new zeal both in the student population as well as with the local community. This serves to increase awareness of the correlation of lifestyle and environment. Rootz Underground lead singer and director of the programme, Stephen Newland (right), was all smiles during the launch and presented students Ajah Parkin (right) and Raquel Levy, both from Albion Primary and Junior High, with fruit trees for planting on the school ground. Special guest and recording Artiste Keida (left) and Khadine Daley, Sandals Resorts regional public relations manager were also at the launch.
