Winning Student Map Projects Impress BTA
After finishing at the top of their class on a Bermuda Map social studies project, St. George’s Prep P3 students Ethan Vonhassel and De-Ary Thomas were rewarded with a trip to the Bermuda Tourism Authority [BTA], where they presented their winning work to BTA staff during a regularly scheduled staff meeting.
In a 10-minute presentation, the students showed off their knowledge of Bermuda geography and talked about their research visit to a Bermuda attraction, with Ethan visiting Fort St. Catherine and De-Ary visiting Gates Fort.
Students De-Ary Thomas and Ethan Vonhassel with David Thomas and Glenn Jones of the BTA:
The students were joined by principal Mary Lodge. BTA staff in Bermuda and those who attended the presentation via teleconference from New York City said they were impressed with the students’ mastery of social studies content, “a knowledge base essential for marketing Bermuda.”
This is great
Congratulations to both youngsters. BTA staff in Bermuda and those who attended the presentation via teleconference from New York City said they were impressed with the students’ mastery of social studies content, “a knowledge base essential for marketing Bermuda.”

Way to go De-Ary & Ethan
Nice work De-Ary and Ethan. You two have more brains than those currently running tourism. Hopefully you can teach them a thing or two. Visitor numbers continue to go down while their pay continues to go up. Pathetic.
Congratulations young people may you continue to lead the way
Bermuda’s Youth are our future. Good job!
Fantastic job De-Ary and Ethan. Keep up the good work and to Ms. Lodge – Thank you for encouraging our young people and sharing their efforts.
