Where the highways are made of water: It’s boats to school, boats to church and boats to the village shop in the Pomeroon River. ‘Pomeroonians’ refer to the river as their highway as transportation between the communities along the banks of this river is almost exclusively by boat. In photo, some residents prepare to leave a meeting at the Siriki Primary School up the Pomeroon River yesterday. The river also serves other purposes including for domestic use.
