Winter Reading Challenges

There are two challenges; the Winter Reading Challenge run by Islington libraries and the Winter Mini Challenge run by The Reading Agency. The challenges aim to encourage children to continue reading over the winter holidays.

Winter Reading Challenge - Islington Libraries

Read 4 books between 1st December and 29th February to get a certificate and the a chance to win a prize!

To support literacy over the holiday period, we welcomed librarians from Islington Library Service to come to our Christmas fair to encourage our children to join their local library and the Winter Reading Challenge.

Taking part in the Winter Reading Challenge is simple and free. Children need to read 4 books from their library between 1^st December 2023 and 29^th February 2024.  There will be a certificate for all those who complete the challenge and a chance to win a special prize!

If you are not already a member of your local library visit https://www.gov.uk/local-library-services to find the library nearest to you. Join today and start borrowing FREE books, eBooks and eAudiobooks.
