Library Update

New Artwork and furniture

A big thank you to Year 11 student George K. for our wonderful new artwork in the library!  

Along with our new bean bags for the reading corner, it has made a more inviting space for everyone who visits. 

Victorian Premiers’ Reading Challenge

The Victorian Premiers’ Reading Challenge is now open, and Cheltenham Secondary College is excited to be taking part!

The Challenge is open to all Victorian children from birth to Year 10 and 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 5th September 2025.

Children from Year 7 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 together read more than 63 million books!
