The Premier's Reading Challenge (PRC) aims to encourage a love of reading for leisure and pleasure in students, and to enable them to experience quality literature. It is not a competition but a challenge to each student to read, to read more and to read more widely. Children in Kindergarten - Year 2 need to read 30 books from the K-2 PRC list to complete the challenge. They can read those books independently or with someone else. We read many books from the PRC list during library lessons and classroom teachers read them as well. Students in Years 3-6 need to read 20 books from their stage level (Year 3-4 or Year 5-6) to complete the challenge. These books need to be read independently. They will be keeping a record of the books they are reading for the challenge during library lessons. Stay tuned for another blog post about how to record your books on the PRC website. The 2020 PRC poster has been designed and illustrated by Mick Elliott, Australian Reading Hour ambassador, and author and illustrator of great books including the hilarious Squidge Dibley! You can see his artwork in the banner at the top of this post. You can click on the link in this video to see hear Mick tell us why he thinks reading matters, and why you should take some time to find the book that's right for you!
