Victorian Premiers' Reading Challenge

The Victorian Premiers’ Reading Challenge is now open and Lowanna College is excited to be participating. The PRC application offers a range of exciting features including:

  • access to a library catalogue (including book images and blurbs)
  • a modern user-friendly interface
  • rewarding  students with badges as challenge milestones are achieved
  • the option for students to mark books as a favourite, give them a star rating or complete a book review

The Challenge is open to students from Year 7 to Year 10 in recognition of the importance of reading for literacy development. It is not a competition; but a personal challenge for children to read a set number of books by September 17th, 2021.

 

Children from Year 7 to Year 10 are challenged to read 15 books and write a review or give a  star rating for each one. To join us in our reading challenge please come into the Library to sign up and receive your login details. 

 

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

 

For more information please see the letter to parents attached below.

Congratulations Warren!

Congratulations to Warren who has not only successfully completed Year 12 this year but he has also been nominated for the Capricorn Apprentice of the Year Award!

Lowanna College Headwear

With the weather cooling down, why not purchase a Lowanna College beanie to keep your head warm? Or even a bucket hat or cap? These are available for purchase from the General Office for $15 each.

Whilst these are NOT to be worn inside they are permitted (and encouraged) in the yard at recess and lunchtime.

Breakfast Club

Don't forget Breakfast Club runs on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. Make sure you come and enjoy some toast and a warm milo.

Hope to see you there!
