Drivers and passers-by on the highway will, in a few weeks, see activity on the building at the Parkinson Memorial School which is to be converted to a multicultural creative centre for the students of the school and the surrounding community.“The process of tendering and selecting contractors for the project has taken us a little longer than expected especially with the Covid-19 restrictions last year” stated Anthony Ali, CEO and Managing Director of Goddard Enterprises Ltd (GEL), the company that has undertaken to fund and oversee the construction of the project as part of its 100th anniversary celebrations. GEL adopted the school a few years ago and gets involved in several projects with the students.“When we were planning our anniversary celebrations, we decided that we were going to do this for the children of Parkinson and for the children of Barbados. Children are gifted differently, and we know that Parkinson in particular has turned out some very talented musicians and entertainers as well as managers of the arts. So, we thought that there was no better gift to the children of this area than to restore and build this centre as an anniversary gift” stated Ali.
