Minister of Education Dr. Rupert Roopnaraine recently outlined plans to
make sports as well as music an important part of the academic curriculum for schools in Guyana while hinting at school ground restoration projects for schools with grounds and those in areas with grounds close by.
Minister Roopnaraine made the announcements at the recent Hand-in-Hand History of Cricket Book launch last Friday evening at Cara Lodge Suites.
The author of the book, Professor Clem Seecharan, carefully compiled 480-odd pages of Guyana’s rich cricket history and Roopnaraine along with other distinguished cricket enthusiasts and stakeholders present at the mini gala, lauded the writer for bringing to life the olden days of Guyana’s cricket.
