Students of the hinterland concluded their one-week educational tour yesterday at the Guyana National Library and Parliament of Guyana.

The Department of Public Information (DPI) said that the annual trip usually forms part of the month-long activities for Indigenous Heritage month, held every September.

“They are excited. I know they learnt a lot and I know they won’t forget this experience. When they go back I know they will have a lot to tell their families and friends,” Mornalisa King, a teacher attached to the Monkey Mountain Primary School told DPI.
