Dear Parents and Guardians,
I am delighted to invite all Spring Mountain State School students to join in the 2024 Premier’s Reading Challenge.
Reading plays an important part in students’ lives during their school years and beyond. It allows children to actively engage their imagination and opens up a world of educational opportunities.
Last year, an outstanding 168,000 students from 937 schools took part in the challenge reading a total of 2.31 million books. What an incredible result!
The reading period for the 2024 Premier's Reading Challenge commences on May. More information will be shared before this date on how to participate.
Prep to Year 2 should read or experience at least 20 books,
Years 3 and 4 should read at least 20 books, and
Years 5 to 9 should read at least 15 books.
Experiencing books can include shared reading, listening to stories, or reading picture books. The aim for the 2024 challenge is to engage more students reading more books than ever before.
I look forward to seeing as many of our students as possible embrace the 2024 Premier’s Reading Challenge.
Happy Reading!
