Every year the Summer Reading Challenge engages thousands of children, encouraging them to read over the long school holidays. You’ll get to work with children by encouraging them to enjoy reading and take part, as well as handing out medals and certificates to those who finish. "The Summer Reading Challenge is all about the children and it’s great to see the chuffed look on their faces as the weeks go on. Regardless of reading ability, I like encouraging all the children to just enjoy reading, that’s very rewarding. ”
