Young readers are rewarded

Youngsters who took part in the summer reading challenge at Kiveton Park Library were given medals and certificates.

Principal library assistant Diane Smith said there was a good turnout of children at the presentation evening.

The theme of this year’s challenge was story lab - a celebration of story and the imagination.

The challenge, which is now in its 14th year, is designed to help children develop a love of reading, boost their confidence and teach them new skills. Children are encouraged to read six books or more during the summer holidays.
