I deem it a pleasure, as 1st Vice President of the Guild of Students of<br />
this institution, to submit my message through the medium of the<br />
school pictorial magazine. I extend honor to the most high God who has<br />
granted us life and has given us this privilege to complete such a task. I<br />
want to also extend sincere congratulations to the pictorial committee<br />
which includes lecturers, guild members and students, for its successful<br />
completion of this project.<br />
This year the <strong>Moneague</strong> <strong>College</strong> celebrates its 60th Anniversary,<br />
governed by the theme ‘Embracing Change: Soaring to the New<br />
Heights”. As I reflect on the past and look to the future I must say we<br />
have achieved much, not only at our <strong>College</strong> but also as a nation. The<br />
60th Anniversary Diamond Jubilee Year Book which is manned by<br />
the executive guild of students is a sign that marks our growth and<br />
aspirations.<br />
The academic school year 2015-2016 was a challenging, but successful<br />
one. Clearly, we have proved the Biblical pronouncement true ‘I can do<br />
all things through Christ who strengthens me’. Students, here at the<br />
<strong>Moneague</strong> <strong>College</strong>, you have been taught well and are armed with the<br />
necessary skills, attitudes and attributes needed in the world of work to<br />
execute the tasks ahead.<br />
Students, you will make mistakes, but learn from them whilst dealing<br />
with the consequences. From here on, whatever you do will confirm<br />
the extent of your integration and reflect your value system, hence, let<br />
us reproduce positive values as The <strong>Moneague</strong> <strong>College</strong> “caters to all<br />
students near and far, multi- disciplined in scope she is a star, as we try<br />
to give our very best and such is our founder’s request”. The <strong>Moneague</strong><br />
<strong>College</strong>, as well as, the powerful lessons learnt and the teachings of the<br />
Bible, will serve you well.<br />
Fellow students, I charge you be strong and courageous as the Bible<br />
declares “Above All, Put God First in all you do”. May the God of Heaven<br />
Bless you All.<br />
Steve Jobs arguably one of the most remarkable visionaries of the twentyfirst<br />
century, commented at an Apple shareholders meeting, “We believe<br />
that people with passion can change the world for better.”<br />
This year we are celebrating the 60th anniversary of the <strong>Moneague</strong><br />
<strong>College</strong> Existence. This enigma of strength can point with pride from its<br />
Staff, supported by the Guild of Students 2015-2016, that we have and still<br />
passionately devoted our lives to making Jamaica and the world at large<br />
a better place. This, we achieve by empowering our students with the<br />
knowledge and skills they will need for meaningful work and service.<br />
I can recall the first time I entered the gates of the <strong>Moneague</strong> <strong>College</strong>,<br />
fresh from high school, I was suddenly impaled at the surrounding and<br />
the warm greetings from the staff and students. I was enrolled in the<br />
Faculty of Hospitality and Tourism Management, where I successfully<br />
completed my Bachelors of Science degree. Throughout the 4 years,<br />
whilst living on campus, I was equipped by the supportive auxiliary and<br />
academic staff, on how to display professionalism and standard quality<br />
service.<br />
During my tenure, the road wasn’t easy, but through faith, consistency,<br />
hard work and God as my guide, I overcame. “With God in the vessel you<br />
can smile at any storm” this was my motivation. Hence, failure was not an<br />
option.<br />
In closing, serving students well require all of us, regardless of our roles<br />
and titles, to share in the essential work that changes lives and makes<br />
the world a more meaningful and better place. Alone we can do so little;<br />
together we can do so much.<br />
I implore to you, make the <strong>Moneague</strong> <strong>College</strong> your choice for success<br />
today. One of the famous quotes “if you waah good, yuh nose haffi run”<br />
sheds light on the fact that nothing comes easy but with dedication,<br />
commitment and perseverance Success is a Must.<br />
