Hello! I’m Darcie Ritchie, a dedicated teacher hailing from the vibrant community of Uitvlugt, nestled in the beautiful Essequibo Islands-West Demerara. Growing up surrounded by the lush landscapes and rich cultural heritage of Guyana has profoundly shaped my passion for education and community development. As a proud Guyanese, I cherish our diverse traditions, from enjoying a hearty plate of pepperpot during the holidays to gathering with family for the annual Mashramani celebrations.
Living close to the Pomeroon River, I often reflect on our local environment's significance and its connection to our identity. It’s a place filled with stories of resilience and unity, much like those detailed in the book "Children of Watooka," which highlights Linden’s historical ties to our diaspora, particularly during World War II. I believe that sharing these narratives can inspire the next generation and strengthen our community bonds, both at home and abroad.
My journey as an educator is not just about teaching subjects but also about fostering a sense of belonging among my students. I strive to create a classroom where every child feels valued and connected to their roots. As we navigate the changes in our world, I am committed to ensuring that my students recognize the beauty of our Guyanese culture and the importance of maintaining our legacy, whether at the Cheddi Jagan International Airport or in the heart of our neighborhoods.
