Nine children of employees of Barama Company Limited who passed the National Grade Six Assessment will benefit from bursary awards that will be presented to them by the company.
The awardees will be receiving $20,000 each for the next three terms of the academic year.
A Barama press release yesterday stated that the company had agreed in July to reinforce the awards to benefit the children of their employees from both the Land of Canaan and Buckhall locations.
The company said also it was proud of the nine children who will be presented with the awards since they had met the criteria of 450 marks and above. Barama added that it encourages all parents to be supportive of their children’s education.
The top three students were Kimeka Craig (494), Shemar Martins (487) and Tyhesia Higgins (485).
