Just in time for the start of school, SOL ANTILLES N.V. has joined forces with the Rotary Club of St. Martin Sunrise to present 300 fully-equipped school bags to the students of the Leonard Connor Primary School.

The handover of rucksacks- which included a wide range of classroom supplies - took place at the school earlier this month.

Attending the ceremony was David Antrobus, General Manager of SOL ANTILLES N.V., along with Glenderlin Davis-Holiday, Director of Public Education. Also in attendance were several members of the Rotary Club of St. Martin Sunrise. 

“We know that the new school year is an exciting time for students and Sol is more than happy to help ensure that each and every child is equipped with the tools they need to have an enjoyable and successful academic year,” explained Antrobus. 

“Sol remains committed to helping our young people reach their full potential. We wish all the students of the Leonard Connor Primary School the very best as they continue to strive for excellence.”

Sol’s donation to the school is part of a back-to-school project being run by the Rotary Club of St. Martin Sunrise. The company chose to sponsor the Leonard Connor Primary School as its main office and depot are located in the same neighborhood – Cay Bay. 

“As good citizens and neighbours, Sol is always proud to champion the education and development of St. Maarten’s youth, and we will continue to support the community of Cay Bay wherever and whenever we can,” added Antrobus.
