Summer Reading Challenge


The Summer Reading Challenge 2024

In order to support literacy in school we wish to encourage all children to join in with the Summer Reading Challenge. The Challenge not only helps maintain and even improve reading levels but promotes reading as a fun activity.

This year’s Summer Reading Challenge starts on 6th July. There are two ways you can take part:

You can join the Challenge at your local library. A librarian will give you a special collector’s pack and help you find books to read for your Challenge. You’ll collect stickers and other rewards along the way.

Alternatively, take part in the Challenge online by going to Summer Reading Challenge. Set a reading goal and log your books on your profile. Reach your goal and unlock a limited-edition online badge and a certificate.

Please note, the in-person and online Challenges are separate. Physical incentives like medals and certificates are only available via the library, for those taking part in person.

We have invited our Islington librarians to come into school in July to talk to the children about joining the Summer Reading Challenge and they will also have a stand at our Summer Fair on Friday 12th July.

If you have any questions, please contact me at office@st-josephs.islington.org.uk.
