Flow’s manager of marketing Jacinta Pinard-Thompson lauded the impact that the SEA Report Writing Competition has had on pupils and teachers at the prizegiving ceremony of the Flow-sponsored pennacool.com’s competition and Inter-School Championship.
“It’s always very rewarding to see and hear first-hand the positive impact that this programme has on our students and teachers,” Pinard-Thompson said in a media release.
The Flow/pennacool.com partnership has birthed many initiatives that encourage healthy competition among primary schools in TT, the release said. The most recent is the SEA Report Writing Competition which was developed to provide a new, and one of the only forums for online local creative writing. The pennacool/Flow SEA portal is one of the few programmes offering this as the new component was adapted in the condensed SEA curriculum for 2022 language arts syllabus, as narrative writing was replaced with reporting writing, the release said.
