Remembering YVONNE On Her Birthday

We miss the times we spent with her;

Her smiles and all the laughter shared.

We miss the songs she often sings; 

The booze, the stories, the love she brings.

We remember YVONNE today...

a true friend in every way.

We miss you.

We love you.

 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAMA

You are the light that clears our path;

You are our strength when times get rough.

You're like a hero that saves the day;

We love you Mama, in every way.  

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

BVA's BIG LEAP

Education is dynamic.  


Students should be able to cope with technology, social media and globalization.  This age of information technology is vast and fast-changing.


This school year, Betty’s Vermillion Academy is implementing a major innovation particularly in the High School Department.


The good news:  ALL HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS WILL BE PROVIDED WITH A NETBOOK.  


An up-to-date approach to learning will equip the students not only with knowledge and skills but also with self-reliance and resourcefulness which without doubt will bring them success.


This big leap is a demonstration of the BVA’s commitment to provide quality education.  And yes, to live up to its passion…EXCELLENCE!
