The National Sports Commission and the National School of Music on Friday concluded their August Vacation programmes, which saw the participation of over 500 children from across the country.
At a small closing ceremony held at D’Urban Park, Minister within the Ministry of Education Nicolette Henry commended the participants as well as the coaches and instructors for their dedication.
Henry, during her brief address, said that regular participation in sports and games teaches children to play the game of life. “It teaches them to accept defeat just as they would accept winning or victory and helps them to build confidence apart from fitness,” she said.
