The 200.6 kilometres that separate Kingston from Hanover was far from being a deterrent to Nadienne Crossman, the principal of Mount Peto Primary School. “Some persons would say the drive is long, but it’s the least I could do,” she said as she prepared to exit the grounds of Kingston College on North Street last Wednesday, where the RuJohn Foundation had set up camp to distribute much-needed supplies to students across several primary-level institutions.
Mount Peto Primary School is one of eight schools sponsored by the foundation. The other institutions are: Unity Primary in Westmoreland, New Day Preparatory in St James, Copper Basic School in St Catherine and the Kingston-based Ananda Marga Kinder-Preparatory, Franklyn Town Primary, and Trench Town Primary and Operation Restoration Christian School. Kingston College is also a benefactor.
