Ms Chaunte Whitter together with the following students — David Smith, Savannah Lewis, Naji Grant, Starr Wilson and Tyree Phillips — attended the Customs Open Day.

“On Tuesday 21st January at Pier 6 I went to Customs Open House,” Starr Wilson said.

“The Open House was a display of all of the different roles in Bermuda Customs. There were tables filled with many intriguing demonstrations.

“I really enjoyed talking to the Officers and learning about the pros and cons about their jobs and also about the stuff that goes on while their working.

“Many of the officers seemed like they had a passion for what they do.”
