Jamaican rally driver Fraser McConnell, a JustBet ambassador, interacted with grade three students at the Waterford PrimaryoSol, sharing his own experiences and emphasising the power of reading in achieving one’s dreams. His inspirational message resonated with the young audience, highlighting the connection between literacy and a bright future. “As simple as reading may seem to some, it is a critical skill that we need to ensure that our young people have and hone. Reading can help our students, our future leaders, find their passion, flex their imaginations and really excel in the future. I’m so happy to have been here with my Supreme Ventures family to participate in Read Across Jamaica Day. It was an amazing experience, and I look forward to being involved next year as well!”
