Reading has its rewards

Thanks to Public Libraries Victoria, kids’ reading over the summer holidays won’t just have fun – they’ll also go in the running to win a prize, from a pool of almost $500.

The Big Summer Read launched in Moorabool on Wednesday 1 December, and will run all the way until 31 January 2022, with $490 worth of prizes on offer.

The event is open to anyone under 18, with books read over summer to be recorded by participants on the mobile app Beanstack.

Once you’ve read 10 books, you enter the major prize pool, but don’t stop there – every extra book after that is another entry, and another chance to win.

Winners can receive a $200 EFTPOS gift card, one of two $50 bowling vouchers, one of two $50 movie vouchers, or one of three $30 book vouchers.

There are three ways to enter: either download the Beanstack app and choose ‘Public Libraries Victoria’ under ‘School, Library or Bookstore’, register online at www.plv.beanstack.org/reader365, or visit your local library for a paper version.

48 public libraries across Victoria, including Moorabool Libraries, are inviting kids to get reading, with the goal of engaging 10,000 Victorian kids across the state.

So, get reading – you’ve got to be in it to win it.
