First Lady Foundation fetes over 350 Bartica children

 

MORE than 350 children of Bartica, Region 7, (Cuyuni-Mazaruni), were given Christmas presents by the First Lady Foundation as part of its annual children’s Christmas treat.

First Lady, Madame Deolatchmee Ramotar visited the St John the Baptist Primary School in the township, and in addition to gifts, shared snacks to the children. The children in turn entertained the First Lady with the singing of carols and the elves and helpers of the First Lady Foundation sang carols, played games and danced with the children.
As Santa appeared to assist the First Lady with the distribution of gifts, she noted that she was “very heartened to see the children having a lovely time at the party.”
Speaking briefly with the children, she asked them if they were good to their parents and teachers this year, since, if they were not, they would not receive a present; the unanimous answer was “Yes Miss.” She explained that even though this is the time of the year to enjoy themselves, it is very important to have a good education. While urging the children to attend school, Mrs Ramotar said: “With a good education, you can be good leaders and help to move our country forward.” She added, “Like you, my favourite time of the year is also the festive season of Christmas.”

The First Lady, on behalf of His Excellency the President, Mr Donald Ramotar wished the children a Very Merry Christmas and a Successful New Year.
Mrs Ramotar and members of the Foundation are travelling countrywide to spread the Christmas spirit to children. According to the First Lady, the Foundation has visited Black Bush Polder in Region 6, and Linden in Region 10 on December 16. She revealed that the grand finale will be at State House in Georgetown on December 21, when the group will cater to 600 children.

Look at dem happy children of Guyana. May Lord Jesus Christ bless the PPP, First Lady, teachers, children and parents.

 

Looks like the AFC and PNC are dead and broke and cannot afford to host a Christmas Party for the Children in Guyana.

 

AFC and PNC are scrooges.
