NSW Premier's Reading Challenge
Our school participates in the NSW Premier Reading Challenge. All students in K-2 complete the challenge in collaboration with their classroom teacher and the Teacher Librarian, who organise the submission of their online reading records for them. Students in Year 3-6 are strongly encourage to continue to complete the challenge.
The Challenge aims to encourage a love of reading for leisure and pleasure in students, and to enable them to experience quality literature. It is not a competition but a challenge to each student to read, to read more and read more.
The Challenge usually opens in March and concludes around August.
For further information please see Mrs Standen in the library.
