2017 PREMIER’S READING CHALLENGE

The 2017 Premier’s Reading Challenge has started and it is great to see some LNPS students have already completed their challenge … well done!   Last year 95% of LNPS students completed the PRC, so let’s try for 100% completion this year!

Please remember that students are only required to do one sheet each year, however you must choose at least 8 of your 12 books from the PRC reading list. 

PRC sheets are are available from the PRC website www.prc.sa.edu.au (click on the Reading Records tab) or can be printed from the attached document.  A Premier’s Reading Challenge information booklet is also attached for more details.  Take a look at the website for more information relevant to both students and parents.

PRC Year Levels:

Our PRC books have colour stickers on them relative to student year levels:

The Premier’s Reading Challenge finishes on 8th September 2017.
