The Victorian Premier's Reading Challenge has commenced and all students from Prep to Year 6 are invited to participate. The challenge encourages students to read a set number of books by the 4th of September 2026 and record their efforts online. Students in Prep, Year 1 and Year 2 can read books by themselves or with someone else.

Prep - Year 2

Number of books: 30

Number of books from the Challenge book list: 20 or more

Year 3 - Year 6

Number of books: 15

Number of books from the Challenge book list: 10 or more

Most of the books you read should be from the Challenge book lists. The rest can be any book you choose. You can read books on the book list for your year level or a level above and they'll count towards your Challenge total. You can read a book from a level below your year level if your teacher agrees. You still need to read the number of books for your year level to meet the Challenge.

Your child will be given their own unique username and password, which they can use to login to their account. Go to Victorian Premiers' Reading Challenge, login as a student and then choose VPRC login. This will take students to their dashboard. Usernames and passwords were sent home this week.

A tutorial about how to use the Dashboard and enter the books they have read has been uploaded to Seesaw, for any families who are unfamiliar with the challenge.

Certificates will be given out for those students who meet the challenge requirements. Please join in as we aim to promote and inspire a love of reading for our students.
