Roll up, roll up for this year’s Summer Reading Challenge!
Libraries across the Caerphilly county borough are encouraging children to join in this year’s circus-themed Summer Reading Challenge called ‘Circus Stars’. The popular scheme will keep youngsters reading throughout the school summer holidays.
Children of all ages will be encouraged to read six or more books of their choice, with every child that completes the challenge receiving a certificate or medal, as well as other incentives.
children from each library will be invited to attend a grand presentation ceremony in October, with one overall winner receiving a magnificent.
An interactive ‘Circus Stars’ website www.circus-stars.org.uk links children with top authors and illustrators, has games to play and gives them space to talk about their favourite books.
Many libraries will also be organising themed competitions and craft sessions.
Go along to your local library to find out what is on offer.
