| book description |
This book is an innovative blend of inspiring poems, short stories, blogs and tips for success. It represents the collective effort of 23 alumni (Form 4b, Year 1974) of Manchester High School, Jamaica. The golden thread running through the pages is the school's motto - Sic luceat lux (Let your light so shine). It will be apparent to readers that the contributors have all been shining their light and continue to do so even after many have retired from professional life. True to the values of their alma mater, they have developed and honed their knowledge in some of the most illustrious universities across the globe. They have studied and practiced their professions in Jamaica, United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Ireland, France, Norway, Switzerland, and as far afield as in Kenya and Australia. This cohort of alumni is distinguished in the fields of accountancy, art, banking, consultancy, economics, engineering, finance, government, healthcare, insurance, leadership, librarianship, management, marketing, public administration, teaching, theology, tourism, and much more. Some have amassed prestigious awards and gained national and international recognition for their achievements. This breadth of expertise makes the contributors well placed to offer guidance, success tips, and life skills for the benefit of children and readers of all demographics.
