Canada-based reggae artiste, Tasha T recently completed at whirlwind tour of select school in Jamaica as the official ambassador of Read Across Jamaica (RAJ).
As the RAJ Musical Ambassador for 2011 & 2012, Tasha T, through her musical style of communication, will lend her talent to encourage families to approach literacy from a positive perspective.
According to Tasha, “Determination and drive are the key ingredients that parents must have in order to assist their children to climb the ladder of education.”
She continued, “We [artists] must make the effort to engage our youth in activities to feed their minds, nurture their growth and display enjoyment with various forms of the arts.”
Tasha T has voiced her full endorsement of RAJ’s project her latest release, Educate Yourself, which is the official theme song of the project.
During November 10 - 12, Tasha T and the members of RAJ visited the Cassava Piece Activity Centre, St Andrew; St. James Parish Library in Montego Bay, the Henningay Prep School and the Breadnut Hill Primary School, St. Ann.
“It was wonderful,” a beaming Tasha T said of the visits, where she performed, interacted with the children and handed out pictures and reading material.
Project co-ordinators Gavin Palmer and Hopeton Brown said they were more than pleased at their three days of activities and happy for the opportunity to engage with students and parents and spread the knowledge.
The team will be back in Jamaica early next year for another phase of the Read Across Jamaica project.
