Victorian Premiers’ Reading Challenge is here!

The Victorian Premiers’ Reading Challenge is now open, and the Altona North Campus is excited to be taking part.

The Challenge is open to all our students, and it aims to help young readers develop a lifelong love of reading. 

It is not a competition; it is a personal challenge for children to read a set number of books by 5 September 2025.

• Children from Prep to Year 2 are encouraged to read or ‘experience’ 30 books with their parents and teachers.

Prep, Year 1 and Year 2 can read books by themselves or with someone else.

•  Children from Year 3 to Year 10 are challenged to read 15 books.

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

This year, the Challenge is celebrating its 20th anniversary with the theme ‘20 years of words and wonder’ and a year of special activities. For details, follow the Victorian Premiers' Reading Challenge Facebook

Since it began in 2005, more than 4.5 million young readers have taken part and  we at the Altona North Campus always meet the challenge.

You can also contact your child's Primary Class teacher, your child's English teacher or our school’s Challenge coordinator Ms Taki Anderson with any questions.
