Dear Parents/Caregivers,

This year SLSS is again participating in the Premier's Reading Challenge.

The PRC is not a competition but a way to encourage students to develop a love of reading for life. Students are encouraged to select a range of fiction and non-fiction books suited to their reading ability and record books read during the reading period, from 6 May to 22 August.

To complete the challenge:

  • Prep to Year 2 must read or experience at least 20 books
  • Years 3 and 4 must read at least 20 books
  • Years 5 to 9 must read at least 15 books.

 

Experiencing books can include shared reading, listening to stories, or reading picture books. E-books, magazines, graphic novels and recipe books can also be read along with fiction and non-fiction books. The aim for the 2025 challenge is to encourage students to make time to read. Last year saw more than 216,000 children from around the state participate.

 

​Every student who completes the challenge, and returns the completed Record Reader Form, will receive a Certificate of Achievement. I look forward to seeing as many of our students as possible take part in the 2025 Premier's Reading Challenge.
