The Premier's Reading Challenge (PRC) is an annual statewide initiative for Queensland state and non-state schools and home-educated students from Prep to Year 9, as well as children (aged up to 5 years) enrolled in an early childhood centre. The PRC aims to improve literacy and encourage children to read for pleasure and learning.
The reading period has concluded for 2023. Schools, centres and individual readers are encouraged to celebrate reading achievement during the celebration weeks from 30 October to 10 November.
Next year's challenge will commence in Term 2 2024.​
