Premiers’ Reading Challenge…

If you would like to participate in the Premiers’ Reading Challenge (PRC) this year please ask your parents to send me a note to let me know and I will send home your registration form at the beginning of Term Two.You will receive your username and password after I’ve registered you.

The PRC started in March this year so you can count books you have read since March 1st. The school holidays will be a perfect opportunity to read books for the PRC (and record them in your Reading Diary).

A BIG congratulations to our 70 students from P-6 who participated in the Victorian Premiers’ Reading Challenge this year and read 2,183 books!

More than 204,100 participants from 2,800 schools, early childhood settings and homes took up the PRC in 2015, reading nearly four million books. Since the program began in 2005, over two million students have read nearly 38 million books – placed end to end, that’s enough books to stretch from Melbourne to Mozambique in Africa!

Here is a wonderful thank you from some of our fabulous authors. I think you will recognise our author friend Adrian Beck who also inspired us with our reading with our Yeo-low Medal this year. 

You can also find your name on the PRC Honour Roll HERE.

A BIG congratulations to these children from P-6 who were awarded PRC medals for their fabulous reading this year. We also awarded one of our Year 6 students a school PRC medal for participating in the PRC every year!

Last year 89 students took on the Premiers’ Reading Challenge and read 2,780 books between them!  I wonder if we can challenge ourselves to read and enjoy even more books this year…

If you love reading OR want to challenge yourself to read more then the PRC is perfect for you!  It’s a great way to try new authors and genres and a fun way to keep an online record of the books you have read.  You can even rate your books and nominate your favourite one!
