Summer Reading Challenge 2024
It’ll soon be time for young readers to explore their creativity over the summer break, as Conwy Libraries take part in the Summer Reading Challenge.
This year’s ‘Marvellous Makers’ Summer Reading Challenge begins on 6 July 2024 and will include free activities for families.
In partnership with Create, a leading arts charity, and public libraries, this year's Challenge celebrates kids' creativity and storytelling abilities.
During the summer, children aged 4-11 can visit any library in Conwy County to join the Summer Reading Challenge, and fire up their imaginations through the power of reading and creative expression.
Children are asked to read 6 books (or more!) before the end of the summer. There’s a special collector poster when they join the Reading Challenge, stickers when they visit the library for more books and a certificate and prize when they complete the challenge. Children will be encouraged to explore new books and stories as well as taking part in free activities, from arts and crafts to music, dance, and more.
The Summer Reading Challenge aims to prevent the "summer dip" learning loss many children experience over the holidays when they aren't in school. With libraries' support, it provides a free, fun way to keep young minds active. By reading books and collecting incentives at Conwy Libraries, young readers can foster their creative thinking skills over the summer break.
