Four educators from French St. Martin travelled to Anguilla on Tuesday, May 1st to consult with Anguilla’s Poet/Author Mrs. Patricia J. Adams. They were Ms. Evelyne Fleming, Deputy Director of the French Education system which includes St. Barths, Ms. Dominique Gene, a teacher at The Senior High School in French Quarter, Mr. Anthony Gombit, a teacher at the Junior High School in Marigot and Mr. Bertrand Le Faux of the Education Department, responsible for bilingual teaching. Also present at the meeting were Mr. Bren Romney, Director ot Youth and Culture and Dr. Patvin Adams, who co-ordinated the meeting.
The four teachers came to consult with Teacher Patsy about various aspects of her work and to gain a better insight into the relationship between St. Martin and Anguilla from a heritage and cultural point of view. The group was very excited to foster agreement between the two Literary worlds.
The principal aim was to collaborate with Teacher Patsy for the greater enrichment of their French pupils through exposure to her poems, songs, plays and books.
