Students of Franklin Town Primary School were welcomed back red carpet style to their newly painted school on Monday, September 5.

The grounds of the institution received a well-needed facelift from the Dominican Republic Embassy along with corporate sponsors as the final phase of the embassy’s ‘Rep School Adoption Programme.’

The work was primarily focused on improving the aesthetics of the learning institution and included repainting the school’s exterior, painting new murals, and repairs and upkeep.

This is the culmination of the embassy’s year-long commitment to the institution, situated at 4 Victoria Street, which the embassy adopted during the 2021-2022 academic year.

The embassy has also pledged its continued support to the school throughout the 2022/2023 school year.

This initiative, which was the brainchild of Dominican Republic Ambassador to Jamaica Angie Mart?nez, saw the mission adopting a public school and developing an academic curriculum, with its primary focus being the promotion and sharing of the Dominican culture and history, as well as improving the school’s infrastructure.

The corporate partners on the beatification project include Pepsi Cola Jamaica, Newport – Fersan (Jamaica) Limited, Hyundai Jamaica Magna Motors, IMCA Jamaica Limited, Therrestra Limited, Jamaica Producers Group Limited, Bashco/MegaMart, and Synus Group.
