Grand Turk, Turks and Caicos Islands
Three top students were recognized on 14th April, at the prize-giving ceremony for Harvey’s Second Annual Grand Turk Primary Schools Easter Card Competition.
The competition invited Grade Six students (Grand Turk) to showcase their artistic talents, express themselves, and demonstrate an understanding of the significance of Easter.
Conceptualized by the head of Division A, Superintendent Willet Harvey, the competition’s vision is geared towards making a meaningful contribution to the Grand Turk community.
After collaborating with Mrs. Nyree Taylor-Williams, Principal of the Eliza Simons Primary School, and Mrs. Rhoda Williams, Principal of Ona Glinton Primary School, the vision became a reality.
Superintendent Harvey emphasized that the initiative goes beyond a one-time effort. “For me, this is not just a one-time or two-time event; this is a lifetime commitment. This programme will continue,” he stated. “The competition specifically targets Grade 6 students, encouraging them as they prepare for the important transition into high school.”
In addition to recognizing artistic talent, the initiative provides practical support.

1st Place: Anthony Forbes, 11, Eliza Simons Primary School
2nd Place: Doranika Gardiner, 12, Eliza Simons Primary School
3rd Place: Damian Wilson, 11, Ona Glinton Primary School
Additional Prizes for ALL students: Schoolbags filled with essential school supplies to assist with the transition to high school.
