Premier’s Reading Challenge

The Premier’s Reading Challenge NSW started on Monday 5th March 2018 and runs through to 31st August 2018. All students in the Prep School will be given the opportunity to take part in 2018. Books and reading logs will be available both in the children’s classrooms and in the library and the reading log and the list of PRC books are available on the FROG page at Prep Library.

Books in the library that are part of the challenge have coloured stickers indicating the level and the PRC number for ease of identification. Books for K-2 have a blue sticker, Years 3-4 have a green sticker, Years 5-6 have an orange sticker and Years 7-9 have a yellow sticker.

K-2 can have books read to them and with them and they are required to read 30 books in the challenge. If a K-2 would like to read independently they can complete the 3-4 challenge and just read 20 books.

Years 3-6 must read the books themselves and need to read 20 books to complete the challenge. 

The challenge can include up to 5 ‘free choice’ books with the remainder of the books being from the PRC list.

Children who complete the challenge will receive a certificate from the NSW Premier at the end of the year.

If you have any questions about either of these please get in touch with Mrs Deans in the Library.
