Off-to-school with Popcaan

For the third year, since 2019, dancehall artiste Popcaan treated hundreds of children from his home parish of St Thomas to much-needed school supplies at his annual Off-to-School Treat and Fun Day.

The event, held at Rudolph Elder Park, was made possible through funding from his Popcaan Care Foundation.

The day featured a host of fun activities with a number of rides scattered across the venue.

In addition to school supplies, attendees were also treated to a performance from the artiste himself.

A representative of the organisers said: “This treat is one all of St Thomas looks forward to and so the anticipation is usually high. Hundreds of children come out to not only receive well-needed school supplies but to also have a good time. We pride ourselves on making the event fun…”

Here are some highlights:

Popcaan interacts with attendees at the back-to-school treat.
These little ones try to beat the heat under an umbrella.
Rides are a hit with the children.
The treat was also about fun and games.
Boys were treated 10 cuts and line-ups to step out fresh for back-to-school.
