At 2:15 p.m. Host Akiera Paterson voice echoed through the hushed audience… “Welcome to the Live Grand Finale of NAWASA’s Water Warz”. Three students stood ready, hands over buzzers in an effort to bring glory to their school – Kezia Gibbs, SJC St. George, Gideon George, SAASS and Peron Paul from the Mc Donald College.

The jubilant sound from the supporters of the St. Joseph’s Convent St. George meant one thing that their very own Kezia Gibbs pulled it off and brought victory to her school.
