See our FacebookDelivered nationally by The Reading Agency and run in partnership with public libraries, the free annual challenge encourages children aged 4–11 to keep reading during the summer holidays, helping them stay motivated and confident ahead of the new school year.
What’s happening in North Somerset libraries
North Somerset Libraries are backing this year’s challenge with a fantastic programme of lively, creative events to help children and families get involved:
📚Craft sessions in every library – with fun, themed activities to spark creativity and bring the challenge to life
📚Author visits from Hana Tooke: Worle library – 11 August at 10am
📚From hands-on crafts to live performances and exciting author events, there’s something for every young reader to enjoy.
How to join the challenge?
Children can sign up for free at any North Somerset library from Saturday 4 July, choose the books they love, and start their very own reading adventure.
Whether they enjoy stories, facts, comics or audiobooks, every child can take part - and every book counts.
So, pick up a library card, grab a book, and get ready to ‘Read to the Beat’!
At both Banwell and Locking schools, we will celebrate all children who participated in the summer reading challenge when we return in September in our first celebration assembly of the new academic year!

They were so confident in their performances, showcasing tunes inspired by Harry Potter and even a self-composed piece! Mrs Page is a regular visitor to our school, supporting and coaching pupils just like these two super-stars!
