Hazel Louise Vaz (nee Chaplin), Founder disciplinarian, devoted Christian educator and philanthropist, was born in Morant Bay, St. Thomas, the youngest daughter of Arnold and Caroline Chaplin.
I have been associated with Vaz Preparatory School all my life – as a pupil, as a class teacher, and now as Principal. I was one of the three pupils with whom Hazel Vaz, our Founder, began this institution on September 10, 1951. Later, in 1966, I joined the teaching staff, receiving the baton as Principal in 1976.
