Victorian Premiers' Reading Challenge has 'started' for 2025
I'm pleased to announce that the Victorian Premier's Reading Challenge is now open to Wangaratta High School students for 2025.
There are over 12,000 titles on the VPRC reading list, and a book for everyone.
On completion, students will receive a Certificate of Achievement signed by the Premier of Victoria.
For Students in years 7-10, the Challenge is to read more books than you normally would.
The Challenge finishes in early September, so you've plenty of time to read them.
Books you've read in 2025 already, count....
Just log on, do a quick book review and you've started the Challenge.
"THE CHALLENGE IS ON." ......OPEN UP A NEW WORLD..... and start reading.
All students, who have registered with the Victorian Premiers Reading Challenge OR those who would like to, please come to the Senior Library at Lunchtime on Monday. Please bring your laptops and a sweet reward will be waiting for those attending 🙂.
