May 11th, 2024 | Category: GOODHEART | 4:35#jamaicagleaner MAY 11, 2024: Strutting along the classroom’s make-believe runway, with shoulders held high and smiles beaming, the Kindergarten students of Maverley Primary and Infant School proudly showcased what sets them apart, successfully accomplishing the day’s goal. ‘Confidence’ was the guiding topic for another engaging session led by Danijah Taylor, affectionately known as Uncle Dan, as part of his ‘Read, Write, Now’ initiative– a nine-day programme that uses different topics to foster a love for reading and writing from an early age. With Miss Jamaica World 2022 Shanique Singh, lending a hand, the students were whisked away into the realm of creative writing and critical thinking on Day 5 of the programme.
