EHSM

Today, we proudly celebrate Mr. Jimmie Forde, Chief Executive Officer and one of the region’s most successful executives, who continues to acknowledge Emmanuel High School Mesopotamia as the “foundation of his being” and a major part of his success in the business arena.
Mr. Forde fondly reflects on his alma mater, especially his treasured memories of Mrs. Grace Eustace. To him, she was more than a teacher. She was a mentor, coach, counsellor, and guiding force who knew how to support students in every area of life.

Although he left EHSM with four CSEC subjects, his drive, motivation, and competitive spirit pushed him to achieve great success, including postgraduate studies at Harvard University. His journey reminds students that it is not where you start, but what you do with the opportunities given to you. He encourages today’s students not to discount EHSM in any way and reminds them that school life should be balanced, with equal attention given to academics, sports, clubs, and other activities that help build character, confidence, and leadership skills. He firmly believes that EHSM is one of the very best schools in St. Vincent and the Grenadines.

As EHSM celebrates another anniversary, Mr. Forde proudly honours the lasting legacy of Dr. John P. Eustace and Mrs. Grace Eustace, whose vision and dedication significantly changed the lives of many students. He remains proud that his alma mater has produced some of the most outstanding citizens of St. Vincent and the Grenadines.

Leadership, service, and entrepreneurship have been hallmarks of the life and career of Mr. Murray Bullock, a proud member of Emmanuel High School Mesopotamia’s Class of 1977.

Looking back on his years at EHSM, Mr. Bullock describes the school as more than a place of learning. It was a community that helped shape his character, discipline, ambitions, and values. He fondly remembers participating in school activities, building lifelong friendships, and experiencing a strong sense of unity that encouraged students to strive for excellence.
He thanks the dedicated teachers of EHSM for inspiring him to work hard and remain focused on his goals. He also remembers Mrs. Grace Eustace for her kindness, encouragement, and genuine commitment to students. Reflecting on the legacy of Dr. John P. Eustace, Mr. Bullock notes that his vision and leadership transformed countless lives and demonstrated the power of education in nation-building.

Mr. Bullock’s professional and community contributions span several decades. His leadership roles have included Manager of a children’s wear factory in St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Chairman of the National Lotteries Authority (NLA), Chairman of WINLOTT/WINLOT Inc., President of the National Development Foundation (NDF), and Member of the Board of Trustees of Emmanuel High School Mesopotamia. He has also played an active role in diaspora and national development initiatives.
An accomplished entrepreneur, Mr. Bullock is the founder of Linmur, Eat Rite Restaurant, and Murray Heights Hotel, and co-founder of Sky Lounge Restaurant & Bar. Through his business ventures and community involvement, he has contributed to economic development while creating opportunities for others.

As EHSM celebrates 63 years of educational excellence, we salute Mr. Murray Bullock for his outstanding contributions to business, national development, and community service and thank him for being a proud ambassador of Emmanuel High School Mesopotamia.

Today, we proudly recognise Station Sergeant Nigel John a dedicated law enforcement professional whose career reflects leadership, service, and a commitment to continuous development.

Since enlisting in the St. Vincent and the Grenadines Police Force in 2000, Station Sergeant John has pursued extensive training in police leadership, community policing, crime scene investigation, narcotics management, psychological first aid, electronic interviewing, and border security operations. His professional development includes a Diploma in Police Leadership and several specialized regional and international certifications.

Reflecting on his time at Emmanuel High School Mesopotamia, Nigel recalls that EHSM catered to students from diverse social and economic backgrounds. He credits the guidance of his teachers, especially Mr. Clarke, who encouraged students to identify their talents and pursue them passionately, whether in academics, sports, or culture. A lesson that has stayed with him throughout his life is Mr. Clarke’s reminder that education is the key to independence and personal growth.

Over more than two decades of service, Station Sergeant John has demonstrated the discipline, integrity, and perseverance that EHSM strives to instill in its students. His achievements serve as an inspiration to current students and a testament to the value of hard work, lifelong learning, and dedication to public service.

As we celebrate 63 years of educational excellence, we salute Station Sergeant Nigel John for his outstanding contributions to national security and thank him for being a proud ambassador of EHSM.
