As part of our 25th anniversary celebrations, the PRC team have developed a suite of resources to help schools celebrate and nurture a reading culture. All resources come as editable and adaptable Canva designs, available for download as PDFs or presentations, making them easy to customise for your school’s unique context. With student-focused podcasts, author creative challenges, a wide reading program, and much more, there’s something here to help every student find their next favourite book.
