Seaford Town - Germany in Jamaica
published: Monday | December 19, 2005

Nestled in the hills of eastern Westmoreland is the history-rich Seaford Town.

Founded 170 years ago in 1835 by immigrants from northern Germany, it is more popularly known as 'German Town'. Many of the residents still possess European features, which reinforce Jamaica's motto 'Out of Many, One People'.

At Left: Students of the Seaford Town Early Childhood Institute are all smiles at the camera on the school grounds last Thursday. Principal of the school, Cynthia Kameka, is appealing for sponsorship to renovate the kitchen so that students can be properly fed.

At Right: A mento band entertains visitors at the Seaford Town HEART/NTA Training Villa last Thursday. Musicians (from left) are Frank Blake, Sydney Chang and Claudius Graham.
