Mrs. Boddie-Thompson also shared a reflection of her time at the school stating, “ I recall as a child coming through [the] door in my sister’s dress, performing as the ‘Flattered Flying Fish’ and when I reflect on that and so many other experiences I’ve had here at this school, they have given me the confidence to now speak publicly in front of a global audience as a diplomat. So, the Edgar T. Morris Primary School, then the Tabernacle Primary School played a tremendous role in the young woman I have become. And I can stand here and say that this school has produced greatness and it is my prayer that it will continue to produce greatness.  Although we are a small school, we continue to punch well above our weight. And I want to ensure that I make my contribution to the furtherance and development of this institution.” 

Principal, Mr. Dale Phipps accepted the cheque on behalf of the institution. He thanked Mrs. Boddie-Thompson for her generosity stating, “We say thank you very much Mrs. Boddie, we know that you are ever with us…We are indeed grateful for this gesture. Thank you very much for all you have done for the school over the years, and we even thank you for what you will do in[the] future.”

An illustrious alumna, Mrs. Sonia Boddie-Thompson formerly served as a Primary School Teacher, Senior Tax Inspector at the Inland Revenue Department, Caribbean Community (CARICOM) Youth Ambassador, Clerk of the National Assembly, and a Senior Foreign Service Officer in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, prior to her current posting in Washington, D.C., USA.
