Desicion has been made to cancel the National Event which all students look up to. In St. Lucia, if there are any event every students, past students, parents, the whole nation look up to, it would of been National Choir Competition and National Solo Competition. Reduced budget in education forced the organizers to come to this sad disappointed decision. However it was said by the organizers that there will be a festival where school get to showcase their talent. Each school is asked to do 1 performance of their choice of either choir, instrumental and combination of both.
There are many disappointment and discouragement with this decision especially at Gros Islet Secondary School where music department works continuously developing students' talents thoughout the year.
