NPS Readathon
4th - 18th August 2025
The Read-a-thon is back! It’s time to cosy up with your favourite stories, raise money for our much-loved library, and maybe even win a prize or two.
Every student who takes part will receive a certificate, and our top readers will score some great prizes.
Whether you’re into picture books, epic adventures or graphic novels—if you’re reading, you’re in!
How it works:
→ Read every day from 4 August to 18 August
→ Keep track of how many minutes you read each day
→ Ask your grown-ups to sponsor your reading
→ Use the form to track your donations
→ At the end, fill out the Google form with your reading and donation totals
→ Every participant gets a certificate, and there are prizes for the top readers!
All money raised goes directly to the NPS library, helping us fill our shelves with even more brilliant books. Last year’s proceeds helped us to purchase our soft furnishings: our beloved Noomi bean-bags, our ottomans and our returns box.

Let’s do this!
If every student raised just $25, we’d hit over $6,000 for the library.
