The popular RE School Tour kicked off recently at the St. Andrew Technical High School (STATHS).
This new seasons' support was evident in the scope and numbers of the hot-list of popular and up and coming artistes, all uniting for one cause. To spread the message.
The over 700 students were treated to a 2 hour concert of exceptional quality and variety…… the performers delivered some of their well-known songs and a few new ones as well. Wonderfully too was the fact that without prompting or being asked, some of the entertainers adjusted their lyrics to compliment the continuing theme of the tour - 'Abstinence Mek Sense'.
Project Manager, Kandi King said, "The new season of RETV School Tour took-off with a bang featuring more than a few new and exciting elements; we had a record amount of artiste participating, from 12 to 23 and more varied performances; The actual concert extended from one (1) to two (2) hours with new sponsors on board in the form of mobile giant Claro, Mothers Patties and National Family Planning Board joining forces with title sponsor, Coke Zero.
Another exciting development is that we have extended the media platform for the airing of the RE School Tour one-hour programme with sister station FAME FM carrying live on-location reports; TVJ will be airing the programme from Saturday October 17th @ 4:30 - 5:30 and You can catch it again on RETV later that same day @ 7pm or at varied times during the week-long RETV coverage".
Newcomers to the RE School Tour, Shantala, Tiger Bless, G Whizz, Stacious, Mixing Lab, I Octane, Unlimited Dancers, and Jahvinci, were warmly welcomed by the students.
Among the favorite entertainers who have consistently supported the RE School Tour and its message were Prodigal Son, Timberlee, Tifa, D'Angel, RDX, Etana, Goddy Goddy, Alaine, Konshens, Chino, Laden, DJ Nicholas, Shady Squad, and Voice Mail, all delivering sterling high energy performances that kept the students soaring.
The entertainment package at STATHS was sparkling but importantly the message of 'Abstinence Mek Sense' was consistently reinforced throughout the afternoon's proceedings, aided by Ministry of Education representative, Matthew Mothersill who spoke at different intervals about the importance of self-discipline. The students were enthusiastic, understood the message and hung on to every word he uttered.
Jerry D's Vibes Machine provided the musical thrills, while RETV presenters Snoop Roc emcee and Lady Rennae hosted the tour.
Among the goodies; giveaways and treats the students were treated to a few surprises as well, as title sponsor Coca Cola's Coke Zero, joined new platinum sponsor Mobile giant Claro, Mothers Patties and National Family Planning got in on the action.
The RE School Tour will be coming to a school near you across the island during the current season. The tour is presented by RETV and 3 Sixty Promotions.
