🇹🇹🪔 Indian Arrival Day 2026 at BESS ☪️🇹🇹
Barrackpore East Secondary School commemorated Indian Arrival Day in grand style as students and staff celebrated the rich heritage and contributions of the East Indian community to Trinidad and Tobago.
The highlight of the day was a reenactment of the arrival of the East Indians aboard the Fatel Razack, led by our talented Tassa Boys, bringing history to life for all in attendance. Students were also treated to a variety of traditional delicacies, including doubles, sawine, kurma, and refreshing cane juice.
The celebration featured a vibrant programme filled with cultural performances, entertainment, and exciting prizes, making it an enjoyable and educational experience for everyone.
We extend our sincere gratitude to our external sponsors, Celina Marketing Limited for their continued support over the years, and Mr. Delano Mohammed of Gasparillo for providing his cane juice services. We also thank the Indian Arrival Day Committee and all members of staff whose hard work and dedication contributed to the success of this memorable event.
Together, we celebrate our history, embrace our diversity, and honour the legacy of those who helped shape our nation.
