Today (September 2, 2019) marks the beginning of the new school term and THA Chief Secretary and Secretary of the Division of Education, Innovation and Energy, Hon. Kelvin Charles, visited two Tobago schools – the Pentecostal Light and Life Foundation High School at Sangster’s Hill Road and the Scarborough R.C. Primary School to encourage students as they start classes.
