Tuesday, March 8, 2005 - The St. Lucia School of Music’s in- service
training program for primary and secondary school teachers commences on April
18, 2005, following a delay due to insufficient enrolment.
The music program is being offered in collaboration with the University Centre
on the Morne as part of its recently developed Outreach Project. Project
Officer, Francillia Bernard said the music program was being offered at an
affordable cost, to give participants the opportunity for further development,
to enable them to make a greater contribution towards their students’
development.
Another component of the Outreach Project is a training component for dance
instructors offered by the Crystallite Dance Academy. Classes commenced on
February 12th and will culminate with an Open Day on March 19th at the studio of
the Crystallite Dance Academy on Mongiraud Street.
“Teachers will be staging their first presentation. The public is invited to
witness the teachers’ creativity and their applied knowledge of various dancing
techniques. The current group of teachers are enjoying the program and all in
all the program has been a success. Persons who miss out can register for the
next cycle commencing January 2006”, Ms. Bernard said.
The University Centre sees the Outreach Program as another medium through which
it can partner with agencies or groups in helping in the development of the
community. At the end of each program participants receives a certificate
endorsed by the centre.
