Guyanese law students Sherry Ann Hinds and Sheneza Clarke

Guyanese law students Sherry Ann Hinds and Sheneza Clarke both achieved outstanding success at the Hugh Wooding Law School’s annual graduation ceremony, held last Saturday.

The Trinidad-based institution presented 213 students from across the Caribbean with the Legal Education Certificate, following two years of rigorous legal training.

Among the graduates, only three students received certificates of merit for achieving at least nine ‘A’ grades out of 11 courses offered.

Remarkably, two of these exceptional students, Hinds and Clarke, hailed from Guyana.

Sherry Ann Hinds was awarded the prestigious Guyana Government Prize for the overall best performance by a student from Guyana. In addition to this top honour, she received several other prizes for her exceptional academic achievements, including:

  • The Council of Legal Education Most Outstanding Year 1 Student Prize
  • The Book Specialist First-Year Student Prize
  • The Mervyn Campbell Law of Remedies Prize
  • The Chairman’s Prize for excellence in Evidence and Forensic Medicine, Law of Remedies, and Civil Procedure and Practice II
  • The Council of Legal Education Prize for the Most Outstanding Student over the course of the two-year programme.

Sheneza Clarke, another standout student from Guyana, also received a certificate of merit for her remarkable academic performance. Clarke’s achievements include several prestigious prizes, such as:

  • The Book Specialist Prize for Second Outstanding Year II Student
  • The Cameron and Shepherd Prize for Best Performance in Civil Procedure and Practice I and Civil Procedure and Practice II by a Guyanese student
  • The Chief Justice Ian N. Chang S.C., C.C.H. Memorial Prize for Best Performance in Civil Procedure and Practice
  • The Fitzwilliams Stone, Furness-Smith & Morgan Prize for Best Performance in Civil Procedure and Practice II
  • The Miles Greeves Fitzpatricks S.C. Prize for Best Performance in Legal Aid by a Guyanese graduating student.

In a statement, the Guyana Jurisdictional Committee has extended its heartfelt congratulations to both Hinds and Clarke, as well as to the entire Guyanese cohort of the Class of 2024.
