The 2021 Reading Challenge is off to a wonderful start with students across Year 7 to 9 actively posting their book reviews. It has been wonderful to see the variety of genres being explored by students in the early days of the Challenge. A number of students have been highly engaged and I would like to congratulate the following students for their stand-out contributions to our online community so far:

• Will Guy;
• Kate Jozus- Leitan;
• Audrey Coetzee;
• Jasmine Barton; and
• Charlotte Lee Steere.

Announcing our Reading Challenge Student Mentors

To support our Middle School students in 2021, we have selected five Year 10 students to act as mentors to their peers over the course of the Reading Challenge. Congratulations to Alex Tickner, Enya Matthews, Sharlini Hollier, Alison Scott and Áine Cunningham on being selected for this role! It has been fantastic to already see the level of encouragement being provided to students and the energy our mentors are bringing to the Reading Challenge.
