Another Wednesday passed and I missed the blog. How? Not my fault...no Internet at the office courtesy of a Flow. There was systemic outage in the Constant Spring area. Anyway, today and tomorrow mark the Mock exam days for Mobay and Kingston students. The tests will be marked, same day, scores attached.

WHY SO LATE?
It has been a busy week. We have been twisting and turning to get all ready for the 2018 staging of the Caribbean Boarding School Fair on the islands of Trinidad, St. Lucia, Barbados and Jamaica.
