It was owned by the Canadian Presbyterian Church.She pointed to the school’s manual where it states that the institution’s aim was to prepare boys and girls for the important tasks in life, to seek after truth and righteousness and to build a character worthy of emulation.On September 5,Nike Air Max 1 Mens Cheap, 1916 the Berbice High School for boys was established on the bottom floor of Reverend J. A. Scrimgeour’s residence. Mr. C.A. Pugsley was the head teacher for the nine students. Due to a growing population and the generosity of both the public and Government, in 1920 the Boys Building was erected. As a direct result to this the Canadian Mission Council of the Presbyterian Church made the move to set up a school for girls. This was housed on the lower flat of the Missionary’s residence under the charge of the Minister’s wife Mrs. McLeod.The manual further states that the Berbice High School for Girls and the Berbice High School for Boys continued until 1924 when the students of the fourth and fifth form were placed together for the first time to work for their Cambridge Junior and Senior School Certificate Examination.By 1941,Wholesale Air Max Tn, the manual states that, the student population had reached 190 and a complete amalgamation was effected. It was then the name – Berbice High School came into being.In order to adequately accommodate the growing number of students on role,Cheap Air Force 1, the Canadian Presbyterian Church in Canada decided to send a representative to British Guiana to assess the situation and examine whether any assistance could come from Government. According to the document, Dr. E. H. Johnson, Secretary for the Board of Overseas Missions was able to influence the Government to throw in 50 percent of the cost for the construction of the building in the master plan. In April 1919 Government made their first financial contribution towards salaries of teachers. The rate was $100 per month.Names such as the Honorable Joseph Eleazer, Honourable E.A. Luckhoo, Honourable Peer Bacchus and the Honourable T.T. Thompson played a fundamental part in bending Government’s arm to release more assistance to the school.According to the document, “In 1951, Honourable W.O.R. Kendall convinced Government of the need to increase its grant to the Berbice High School from $8,000 to $13,000. In 1955 government was again approached for an increase in the grant and as there was a consciousness of the value of education among the ranks of the government, the annual block grant was increased to $27,500.”After 50 years of producing some of the finest students in the country, the school on the 16th of January 1967 was passed over to the Government of Guyana and no more were tuition fees charged. The Minister of Education, who was then Winifred Gaskin, announced that the school would hold status similar to that of Queens College and Bishops High School.Another page in the school’s history was written in 1919 when J. I Ramphal became known as the first candidate to pass the Cambridge Senior Examination. “Mr. Simon Mook Sang obtained the medical degree at Edinburgh after gaining university standing from the Berbice High School in 1926.” Thedocument states that in 1954 the Oxford examination was introduced to the school and later the G.C.E.A sixth form was established at the institution in 1954 but due to poor response the idea was abandoned. It was subsequently re-introduced and lasted a few years. In 1971 the Berbice High School was twinned with the St. Rose’s High School, however, according to the manual, no known visits were made since 1976.The school is situated at the intersection of North Road and Princess Elizabeth Road in New Amsterdam. The population comes from several sections of East and West Berbice.
