Premiers' Reading Challenge

 

It is great to see many of our students signing up to the PRC this year!

 

The Victorian Premiers' Reading Challenge is now open and Kurunjang Secondary College is excited to be participating.

 

The Challenge is open to all Victorian children from birth to Year 10 in recognition of the importance of reading for literacy development. It is not a competition, but a personal challenge for our students to read a set number of books by 17 September 2021.

 

Students in Years 7 - 10 are challenged to read 15 books. 

 

All students who meet the Challenge will receive a certificate of achievement signed by the Victorian Premier and former Premiers. 

 

Additional prizes and awards will be given to our top PRC students for 2021.

 

See the Library team to sign up.
