Yesterday, Colonel Brian Chin, an old student of St Stanislaus College, donated software and computer equipment to the school.
Colonel Brian Chin, who entered Saint Stanislaus College in 1975, was recently elevated to the rank of Colonel in the US Marines. He served in Iraq and Korea, and is now working in the Pentagon.
In showing its appreciation, the College Association presented Colonel Chin with a plaque in recognition of his outstanding achievements and the honour that he brought to the college.
Present at the handing over ceremony were several of his friends who attended the school while he was there, among them Dean and Karen Whitehead from Antigua, Camille De Groot, Robin Low and local attorney-at-law Nigel Hughes.
Colonel Chin exhorted the children to enjoy their period at Saints, as it was a fine institution, and he wished he could exchange places with them.
He urged the fifth formers to provide leadership to the rest of the school, and to ensure that the school and its equipment were left intact so that another generation could benefit.
The ceremony was chaired by Nigel Hughes, President of the Saint Stanislaus College Association, and the plaque was handed over by Camille De Groot, a member of the Association’s executive.
Mr. Hughes paid tribute to the teachers for the outstanding job they had done, which led Saints to win the coveted prize of most improved secondary school in 2008.
Special tribute was also paid to Mr. Christopher Fernandes, Chairman of the Board of Governors.
