The companies founder recently traveled to the Bahamas and visited with a grade 8 class at the Lyford Cay International School (LCIS), ” An independent, non-denominational day school offering a high standard International Baccalaureate Nursery through Grade 12 education.  As a full-fledged accredited international school, the curriculum is developed and delivered to an internationally recognized standard of excellence. In recent years, the school has made major progress, both inside and outside the classroom, across its facilities and curriculum.”

Excerpt from Lyford Cay’s online publication…

“Canadian documentary filmmaker Craig Conoley made a presentation to the grade eight Humanities class . He presented his international documentaries from Canada and Nepal, discussing his experiences abroad as well as his documentaries made within a local context. Paramount was his emphasis on utilizing today’s social media platforms in positive, productive and creative ways.”

“He stressed the importance of asking the big questions about issues outside of our everyday experience. Issues of Environment, Community Service, Health and Social Education were explored in a collage of his work. Students of the grade eight Humanities class were enthralled by his process and his relationships forged in the field. Mr. Conoley continues his documentary productions and other works out of Ottawa Canada @ Partus Films.”
