Summer Reading Challenge 2024

The Summer Reading Challenge is back for 2024 and this year's theme is 'Marvellous Makers'.

1 in 4 children cannot read well by the age of 11. This hugely limits their life choices and skills. 

The Summer Reading Challenge encourages children to keep reading during the summer holidays, ensuring they are ready for a great start to the new term in the autumn. Children set a reading goal and collect rewards for reading anything they enjoy. 

Children can sign up at their local library or online at https://summerreadingchallenge.org.uk and it’s free to take part.

This year’s Challenge is called Marvellous Makers and it’s all about creativity! From dance to drawing, junk modelling to music, there’s something for everyone. 

This year’s theme has been developed in partnership with a leading arts charity, Create.
