The Summer Reading Challenge 2020-21 has ended

With the coming of February, the 2020-21 Summer Reading Challenge has officially ended. Huge congratulations to everyone who took part! This year, over 100 kids earned special book prizes for their achievements as part of the Challenge — ka rawe to all of you! We really enjoyed reading all of your book reviews and seeing all of the Book Bingo challenges you completed. A massive thanks as well to our friends at Marsden Books in Karori, the Children’s Bookshop in Kilbirnie, and Unity Books in the CBD for providing the books we were able to award you all.

Several piles of brand-new children's books, including picture books, fiction, nonfiction, and comics

Right now, the cogs are whirring and the calculators calculating as we undertake the massive task of figuring out who our Grand Prize Winner and School Prize Winner will be. Stay tuned for more announcements on the library website and on social media later in February — the winner could be you!
