Summer Reading Challenge 2023 - Ready, Set, Read!

 

Get ready for a summer of reading and fun with the Summer Reading Challenge!

This year, the theme is sports, games, teamwork, and play. The Reading Agency has partnered with the Youth Sports Trust to create ‘Ready, Set, Read!’ and keep imaginations moving over the school holidays. By participating in the Challenge at East Lothian Libraries, young people will have the opportunity to explore new reading material, develop skills, and discover new interests.

With incentives to collect and plenty of brilliant books to enjoy, the Challenge is the perfect summer activity to build young readers’ skills and confidence during the break from school. Children can also take part online through the official digital Challenge platform summerreadingchallenge.org.uk.

The Challenge begins in libraries across East Lothian on Saturday 17 June. Visit your local library to register and find out about the activities they have planned for you. 

Information on events taking place across our libraries can also be found on our webpage https://www.eastlothian.gov.uk/summer-reading-challenge 

Keep an eye out on the East Lothian Libraries Facebook page or on your local library's dedicated Facebook page for all you need to know too!

All children completing the Challenge will receive a certificate and a book for their home collection.
