Victorian Premiers’ Reading Challenge

Big shout out to the following students who have already completed the Premier's Reading Challenge!

Well done Layla, Isabella, Shamus, Raffaela, Arvin and Sharlotte.

Many other registered students have made a good start - keep up with your fantastic reading in the holidays!

Great to see so many of our students busy reading books for the Premier’s Reading Challenge - especially when this cold weather keeps us inside! Don’t forget to use borrowing time in the Library to choose some amazing books. Or you could check out the huge selection of books at the Preston Library in Gower Street.

Don’t forget that you can add books that your parents, teachers or Rosetta have read to you.

It ends on September 5th so start adding in your books using your log-in details.

I have been reading so many amazing books for the Victorian Premier’s Reading Challenge. It is really fun reading so many books for the Victorian Premiers' Reading Challenge. Everyday I read a different book and l love it. Raffaele Yr 5

At school I have been reading a book called 'One Piece' by a Japanese author named Eiichiro Oda. I think the book it's very humorous and interesting. I added it to my Premier's Reading Challenge this year so my teacher Ann can verify it when I finish reading the book. Cody Yr 5

At the moment, I’m reading this book as part of the ‘Victorian Premiers’ Reading Challenge’ and I really enjoy reading it. It's an amazing book and after reading this book, I’m going to add it to my reading list. Allie Yr 6
