It was a fun-filled day as students of Hilton Special School and Hilton Early Intervention Centre celebrated their fun day with the US Navy.
The event was organized by the US Navy who is currently on our shores to provide acute medical and surgical services.
Head-teacher Nanise Ravise said that they were privileged that the sailors took time off their busy schedule to come and mingle with the students and be part of their fun day.
Meanwhile, Team Leader Lieutenant Mike Beasley said different activities such as face painting and outdoor games were organized to keep everyone busy and entertained.
Beasley said this was also a way of bringing the students, teachers and parents together for a fun time.
