Summer Reading Challenge
Join in 25th June – 30 September 2025!
The Summer Reading Challenge is a FREE holiday activity for children. It’s all about reading for fun, aiming to improve reading skills and confidence. Choose anything they enjoy to read! It’s free to take part and children can sign up at their local library or online. This years’ theme is “Story Garden”.
There are two ways you can take part:
- You can take part in person at your local library. The library will give you a special sticker poster and other special incentives, and help you find books to read for your Challenge.
- Alternatively, take part online. Set a reading goal and log your books on your profile. When you reach your goal you will unlock a limited-edition online badge and certificate!
The in-person and online Challenges are separate. Physical incentives like medals are only available via the library, for those taking part in person.
