Five students from the Castle Bruce Secondary School took to the stage on Friday in an attempt to capture the crown in the Miss Character Counts Pageant.
Each student represented a “pillar of character in the competition, according to the organizers.
Breanna Challenger, who represented the character of respect, walked away with the crown.
Laurencia John, representing responsibility, was the first runner up while Adina Charles, who portrayed citizenship, took the second runner up position.
The five competed in the following categories, introductory round, formal speech promoting their pillar of character, talent, casual wear and evening wear.
The other students who participated are Camisha Mingo, who represented fairness and Briana Charles, trustworthiness.
Principal of the school, Octavia Alfred, said the aim of the pageant is to assist students of the school shape their attitude and advocate character building.
All the girls, whether they won or not, are expected to advocate for their pillar until the next pageant.
This is the second time the pageant is being held and is organized by the Pastoral Care department of the school.
Yeah to CBSS. It was time somebody capture us because we have been doing good things all the time. I guess from now on we will use DNO to talk about all the good things. The media does not take us on when we invite them . guess we too far.
Good job organizers ,teachers and students. Keep on doing good things in your school and community.
Alas people do not know what to do in Dominica. Do good criticism on Do bad less criticism.Leave the children and the show alone. Let the children be children.The pervert that saying about sexy that all you could say
cool
looks like the more “sexy looking” one got the prize!!!
errr what was the pageant called again?

Congratulations to CBSS staff and students, especially organizers and participants. Did not forget you parents, keep it up. DNO keep on highlighting the positive. All the best Principal Alfred.
Family…..Y-E-A-H……congrats
compliments to those beautiful girls and the effort you made. congrats Bri Bri and all the others. You all were good
For those who think at CBSS we do not have maths and science contest. I have news for you in March we had Maths week and it was great too. I will tell Principal Alfred to put everything on DNO because when we wait for MOE highlight for us we hear nothing. so I hope whoever choose to go the DNO way with our news will continue. We just had a great career day and soon it will be Literacy week. DNO you may hear from us every week because at CBSS we not sleeping on us. trust me. Furthermore maths and science without honesty and good character will only give us intelligent thieves and crimINal so again CHARACTER COUNTS
something like a song competition including popular genres cud interest the boys since so many of them sing and are interested in hip hop and dancehall even bouyon..it’s a growing initiative and will get better over time..Just asking why dont u run for mr.dominica.
Dominica must be the Island with the most pageants. Why don’t they have a Math contest instead or Arts or a School Science project contest.
great show. keep it up CBSS
good the pastoral care committee. Miss Alma Jacob and the counsel Miss Cornelia fountain.
But sir Delroy Watt was a blast as the Master of ceremony. I never know he has talk so. But Miss Principal was watching those dancers. If they had wine too much she would stop the show. Boy that Mrs Alfred there doh easy eh
That show was great and those guest performance look jokes. continue to be people of good character students and do not forget what the principal does say every time “we are people of excellence”
Good DNO a breathe of fresh air. Good news from Grammer school and good news from Castle bruce secondary. some news people all they interested in is when children fight in school. our grandmother use to fight in school. school will always have fights but it have good things too.Well done Mrs Jean Jaque and Mrs Alfred
well done pastoral care coordinator miss Alma Jacob and the school counselor miss Cornelia Fountain. Mrs. Nation, Mrs Eugene, and all the teachers who worked hard. As for that Mrs Alfred. Trust me that lady like excitement and she knows how to make children remember their school days all in their old age. I hear next year the boys are having their for the standards of the CHILD FRIENDLY SCHOOL. That will be fun Mr. kindness, Mr. Industrious is so nuh. Looking forward.
wonderful. The pastoral care committee must be commended.
+++ great try +++ uncovered your trick worked lol I am so gullible.
just a question why didn’t boys participate? is this an only girls’ school?
the same reason why men are not taking an active role in society.. u can’t force people to do what they don’t want to do. in addition to target the young men something other than a pageant has to be planned, then again the interest of young men these days are not stirred towards anything positive regardless of what it is..just a trend older men in society sadly set. but it’s a mixed school.
it’s a mixed school..u should give some ideas dat wud encourage the boys to take part in character counts activities.
