It then continues on to show how the orphanage grew into a school with a population of six girls and developed into the school that it is today.<\/p>\n<p>Amala Sorhaindo, a 2010 graduate of the school is one of the key artists on the project. She explained that the mural shows that Convent High School has various programmes which include sports, drama, dance and computer sciences. Sorhaindo and Eron Hamilton are the main artists on the projects.<\/p>\n<p>Seventeen students of the CHS, along with a few students from other schools around Roseau are enrolled in the project.<\/p>\n<p>Webb is encouraging students from other schools to embark on similar projects.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-large wp-image-70970\" title=\"GE DIGITAL CAMERA\" src=\"http:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/mural1-642x428.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"642\" height=\"428\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/mural1-642x428.jpg 642w, https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/mural1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/mural1-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/mural1.jpg 738w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 642px) 100vw, 642px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-large wp-image-70971\" title=\"GE DIGITAL CAMERA\" src=\"http:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/mural2-642x428.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"642\" height=\"428\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/mural2-642x428.jpg 642w, https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/mural2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/mural2-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/mural2.jpg 849w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 642px) 100vw, 642px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-large wp-image-70972\" title=\"GE DIGITAL CAMERA\" src=\"http:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/mural3-642x428.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"642\" height=\"428\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/mural3-642x428.jpg 642w, https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/mural3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/mural3-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/dominicanewsonline.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/mural3.jpg 669w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 642px) 100vw, 642px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Youth Development Division in collaboration with the Convent High School are near the end of a project which is aimed at beautifying the school while at the same time bringing its history to life.
