Kaharati Comprehensive School will be part of the National Read Aloud 2026 World Record Attempt initiative in Kenya.
The 600 learners at the Murang'a-based learning institution have been enrolled in the programme, making them part of one million participants across the country, as teachers and education stakeholders seek better-equipped school libraries and curriculum-based reading materials to accommodate the pupils.
The nationwide initiative implemented by Storymoja Africa and Start A Library Trust brings together learners from more than 1,000 schools who simultaneously read the same text in an attempt to set a new world record while promoting a culture of reading among children.
