VICTORIAN PREMIERS' READING CHALLENGE 2026
The Victorian Premiers’ Reading Challenge is now open. As we transition to some wonderful new school systems, we are pausing the internal running of the Premier’s Reading Challenge. We are still just as excited about reading as ever, and we can’t wait to look at bringing back external challenges once our new tools are all set up.
Our internal school reading challenges will continue to run!
As we will not be running this internally at BHCS, an independant registration will be required. If you would still like your child to complete the challenge, please register at: https://www.vic.gov.au/premiers-reading-challenge
This year’s Challenge theme is ‘Stories to discover. Stories to tell’. Stories can inspire and challenge us, and help us grow. They open our eyes to new worlds and new ways of thinking. The number of books read can be varied for everyone's needs. All children who complete the Challenge will receive a certificate of achievement signed by the Victorian Premier and former premiers.
Happy reading!
