On Tuesday, the Sint Maarten Tourist Bureau along with the Florida Caribbean Cruise Association (FCCA) hosted their annual Holiday Gift Program.
This year, the school selected was Oranje School on Front Street. This particular school was selected because of its recent celebration of its 160 anniversary of existence, according to Executive Assistant to the Minister of Tourism, Economic Affairs, Telecommunications and Transport Hon. Franklin Meyers, who was not able to attend the event due to a prior appointment.
At the school, the first to third graders were able to personally greet Mickey and Mini Mouse and receive their gifts. The students, teachers, and principal were elated.
