18 Schools for Inaugural National Schools Soca Competition

Sixteen (16) Schools across Saint Lucia have qualified for the inaugural National Schools Soca Competition on Friday, June 6, 2025, as part of events under the Lucian Junior Carnival Calendar.

To secure a place in this year’s competition, interested schools participated in a closed audition on Wednesday, May 7, where students performed in front of a panel of experienced judges. Judges assessed lyrical content, stage presence, vocal delivery, and overall artistic impact, to determine the young artists who would advance to the final stage of competition. The National Schools Soca Competition is divided into Infant/Primary and Secondary school segments. The schools emerging successful are as follows.
