Ready, Set, Read! 香港六合彩资料图库鈥檚 Summer Reading Challenge is back for 2023, and it's the perfect way to get your children reading over the school holidays!

The challenge officially starts on Saturday 8 July. 

 

Children aged from 4 to 11 can visit their local library to join a superstar team and their marvellous mascots and get involved in a Summer Reading Challenge themed around the power of play, sport, games, and physical activity. 

 

Through taking part in the challenge, with free materials from your local library and online via the challenge website, children will be encouraged to keep their minds and bodies active over the summer break. 

 

The characters 鈥 brought to life by children鈥檚 author and illustrator Loretta Schauer 鈥 navigate a fictional summer obstacle course and track their reading as they go.

 

Through activity challenge cards from the Youth Sport Trust, and an exciting, themed book collection, the Summer Reading Challenge aims to keep imaginations moving over the school holiday. By participating in the challenge young people will have the opportunity to explore new reading material, develop skills, and discover new interests.

 

Councillor Marcus Hart, Cabinet Member with Responsibility for Communities at 香港六合彩资料图库 County Council said: 鈥淭he Summer Reading Challenge has consistently captivated our young readers in 香港六合彩资料图库, and I鈥檓 thrilled it鈥檚 back again for 2023. This year鈥檚 theme 鈥楻eady, Set, Read鈥 will celebrate play and participation, encouraging children to engage in games and sports in any way that best suits them and showcase how reading can be active and engaging and can itself involve teamwork and community.

 

Karen Napier, CEO, The Reading Agency said: "We're delighted to see how library partners across the country are organising their own events and activities to support this year's Summer Reading Challenge. We are really looking forward to working closely with them to help get children reading, imagining, and staying active this summer.鈥
