Kindergarten, Year 1 and Year 2 (K-2) students at Fort Street Public School share in enough rich reading experiences in class and library sessions to complete the Premier's Reading Challenge (PRC) criteria of 30 books (25 from the PRC booklists plus 5 choice books) each year. Mrs Simon enters those books into every K-2 student's reading record and they receive a certificate with their end-of-year report. If any student would like to enter some of their own personal reading towards the challenge - they can log on to the PRC Student Website or download a personal reading log (below) and give it to Mrs Simon before the challenge ends (20 August).
Students in Years 3 to 6 need to read their books by themselves in order to count them for the challenge, so they need to log their books on the PRC Student Website or fill out a reading log and give it to Mrs Simon before the challenge ends on 20 August. The older students need to read 20 books total, 15 of which must be from the PRC booklists for Years 5-6 or Years 7-9 and 5 of which can be personal choice books.
Videos on how to access the PRC Student Site and log books can be viewed here - you MUST be logged in with your child's SCHOOL GOOGLE ACCOUNT to watch these as they contain images of student accounts so are limited to NSW Department of Education Google accounts for privacy purposes.
