Hello! My name is Fiona Nials, and I am a proud teacher residing in the vibrant community of Vriesland, nestled in the Demerara region of Guyana. With the mighty Essequibo River flowing nearby, I often draw inspiration from the natural beauty that surrounds me. My roots run deep in this land, where the rich cultural heritage of the indigenous peoples and various ethnic communities, including Amerindian, African, Indian, and Portuguese, paint a vivid picture of our history. Whether it’s enjoying a plate of pepperpot during the holidays or sharing the joy of Mashramani with my students, I cherish every moment that connects me to my culture.
As a member of the Guyanese diaspora, I value staying connected with fellow Guyanese across the globe. The discussions about our unique identity, especially regarding our place in the Caribbean community through CARICOM, remind me of our resilience and the pride we share in being a part of something larger. I often engage in conversations about how our country is among the richest in the world—not just in natural resources, but in the warmth of our people and the depth of our traditions.
In my teaching, I emphasize the importance of understanding our cultural heritage and appreciating the diverse stories that each student brings to the classroom. It’s not just about education; it’s about nurturing a love for our country and fostering a sense of belonging. Together, we celebrate what it means to be Guyanese—whether it’s reminiscing about the sounds of the market or the flavors of our local dishes. Let’s explore our beautiful land, one lesson at a time!
