Celebrating Children Through Music
posted (November 17, 2017)
Today is Children's day and primary schools all over the country celebrated the by honouring their children with fun and games. But All Saints Primary School took it up a notch with an all-day concert. We learnt more from one of the organizers and spoke to some excited kids.

Mark Usher, President - PROTO Foundation
"We decided to start with All Saints so what we have done is provided them with a number of extracurricular services to All Saints, for example, today event. Today is children's day and today event is performing arts and music festival. What we are doing here is simply giving the children of All Saints and a number of others schools the opportunity to come on stage and perform whether they want to sing dance or do acting right. The next phase is this we have a lot of talented Belizean artists here in Belize but they never get to perform in front of their big audience which is primary school student so we are bridging the gap and bringing a Supa G. We are bringing a Denise Castillo here."

Roslyn Pech, All Saints Primary School Student
"I feel really blessed to be here and I am really glad that I have a school that will support us and have different activities and I am really blessed to be here with the rest of my classmates to enjoy this day."

Sahar Vasquez, reporter
"Can you give us a little sneak peek of your performance?"
