“The school pageant is one of our major fundraisers for the Graduating Class of 2016. Moreover, the pageant is geared towards building confidence, providing opportunities for our seniors to develop life skills, display talents and increase the awareness of the importance of service by giving back to the community,” the school said.
“This year, the pageant is being held under the distinguished patronage of Mr. M. Dean Foggo, former CedarBridge Academy business teacher.
“Foggo brought the idea of the school pageant to CedarBridge Academy to provide students with an opportunity to develop etiquette, interpersonal skills and communications skills. The pageant has been in existence since April 1999. This year, the S4 team found it fitting to have Foggo as our distinguished honouree.
Tickets for the pageant — which will be held at 7pm on November 28th — are available from each contestant or the school’s main office. For any questions regarding the pageant, contact Denise Weekes-Burke at dweekes@cedarbridge.doe.bm or 296-5665.
All the best to all the contestants!!
