Little Cayman's One Room Schoolhouse

On a recent visit to Little cayman, I had the opportunity to visit the Little Cayman Elementary School. Take a look...

In this video, the students in Miss Veronica Khan's classroom took Teacher John on a class trip outside of their school to locate and identify the varied flora in the immediate vicinity of their one room schoolhouse on the beautiful island of Little Cayman. Taron, Jovian, and Justin identified many different plants, such as oleander, jasmine, rose, cactus, orchid, and the national tree of Cayman, the silver thatch palm. Plans are underway for the students in Miss Veronica's classroom to use teleconferencing and other means of communication to begin education related and FUN activities with their counterparts at a school in Philadelphia. Miss Veronica and her able assistant, Miss Kerry Scott are doing wonderful work with the students in their care.
