Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid congratulated Reem Adel Ahmed Al Zarouni, from Al Ittihad National Private School in Abu Dhabi, for winning the UAE-level Arab Reading Challenge champion title, commending her outstanding achievement and wishing her continued success.

Sheikh Mohammed shared on X: “Today, the UAE celebrated 810,000 students from 1,380 schools who participated in the Arab Reading Challenge, which has engaged over 32 million students globally. I thank my brother Sheikh Abdullah Bin Zayed for his patronage of this important national student initiative. Congratulations to Reem Adel Al Zarouni of Al Ittihad National School in Abu Dhabi for her exceptional performance, surpassing 800,000 other students. During the challenge, she read 300 books and demonstrated a remarkable understanding of their content. I am proud of the participation of UAE students and delighted by this generation's passion for reading. The future of our nation is secure in the hands of a generation that embraces knowledge and reading.”
