QSuper competition
QSuper is proud to continue our support of the Premier's Reading Challenge in 2020. Now, more than ever, we want to encourage a love of reading in our Queensland kids. We have a fantastic opportunity for two schools to win a full day visit from author, Brian Falkner.
Brian will deliver a full day of workshops or talks to the winning schools, which can be chosen to suit the needs of your students.
There are also eight $500 book voucher prizes to be won.
Last year's winners of the major prize were Greenslopes State School and Toowoomba East State School whose students loved the opportunity to participate in creative writing workshops.

Queensland Ballet workshops
Queensland Ballet will visit kindergartens and childcare centres across Brisbane to share the wonder of storytelling and movement, through delightful play-based workshops.
These interactive workshops, held from 17-28 August, will bring to life stories from the Premier's Reading Challenge 2020 early childhood book list, to ignite imaginations while inspiring a passion for reading and dance in 2 to 5-year olds.
These workshops have always been very popular, so don't miss out. Visit
Queensland Ballet's website to register or for more information.
Celebration Weeks
Schools, early childhood centres and parents of individual readers are encouraged to celebrate reading achievements by holding classroom, school or home celebrations during the Premier’s Reading Challenge (PRC) celebration weeks, from 2 to 13 November 2020.
Schools and early childhood centres can invite their local Member of Parliament to participate in their celebration events by presenting certificates to students.
Certificates
For participants who complete the challenge, certificates of achievement signed by the Premier are mailed to schools, early childhood centres and homes in October in time to be presented during the PRC celebration weeks.
A certificate of participation (DOCX, 2MB) is available to reward participants for their reading achievements, even if they did not complete the challenge.
