This morning, I had the pleasure of welcoming 30 outstanding students, five from each school across the KSA region, to Jamaica House, where I read with them as part of our Read Across Jamaica Day activities.

Literacy is at the heart of nation building, giving every Jamaican the tools to think clearly, express themselves with confidence, and access new opportunities. I encourage every Jamaican to take part.

Read with a child, share a story, and play your part in shaping our beloved country.
