Reading Challenges

Here are the reading challenges for Term 1, as well as our year-long challenges. The aim is for students to read around one book per week, and to read widely. All the challenges, except for the 10-book challenge, are optional - but there will be prizes at the end of the term! The same book can count in more than one challenge.
