NSW Premier's Reading Challenge - Update
Firstly, congratulations to the following students who have already completed the Challenge this year - Maram A, Caitlin R, Laura Z, Rebecca M, Bianca J, Shreya M, Sarah M, Bronwyn Z, Hannah W, Charley L and Darcy E. Please give them a virtual round of applause.
For students who are in the process of completing the Challenge there is some good news - there have been some rule changes and the Challenge has been extended by two weeks.
The rule change is due to students learning from home. The rule change increases the number of Choice books students are permitted to read. Students on all Challenge levels are now permitted to read 10 choice books. Choice books are the books the students choose themselves that are not on the PRC Book Lists.
The new closing date for students is Friday 3 September 2021. This is the date students need to have their online Reading Record completed by.
If students are having difficulty finding books to read while you are learning from home, there is a solution - the Wheelers ePlatform App.
As a St Patrick’s College student you have free access and you can download the App on your laptop or on your phone. The app includes eBooks and audiobooks and there are over 300 PRC books on the app, so you should be able to find plenty to read.
Instructions on downloading the App, as well as everything else PRC-related, can be found on our NSW Premier’s Reading Challenge page on the Library homepage.
If you have any questions or need any help you are always welcome to email Mrs Denford in the Library.
