Welcome Freshers!
New students came out with enthusiasm, pride and confidence
to show off the colours of their homelands during the
Parade of Nations
, a fun activity organised by the Students’
Guild on Tuesday, September 4, 2018. Here, a young man in an all-blue leotard and draped in Guyanese national flag colours celebrates his mainland country of Guyana, while at right, a
young woman celebrates her homeland of beautiful St Lucia while wearing a traditional French creole-influenced costume inspired by the“Wòb Dwiyèt”; she wears a white cotton blouse
(chimiz decolté) and an ankle length skirt (jip) made from madras material.
