Bloodaxe Book Challenge
The Bloodaxe Book Challenge, delivered in collaboration with Jorvik, launches on Saturday 16 November until Saturday 11 January.
The Bloodaxe author this year is Sophie Kirtley, with her fabulous The Haunting of Fortune Farm. Thanks to our partners Jorvik, children will receive themed stickers and rewards and all children who read 4 books will be invited to a special event with Sophie Kirtley on Wednesday 19 Feb at York Explore
Summer Reading Challenge
Nearly 3000 children joined the Summer Reading Challenge 2024 at Explore York Libraries this summer. They enjoyed choosing and reading books of their choice and visiting our libraries over the summer, and collected rewards along the way.
Thank you to these generous, local, family activities who made the Challenge even more special this year, by donating family tickets to their attractions which children were entered into weekly prize draws to win:
York Maze, Wonderlab, Jorvik, Grand Opera House, Aqua Splash, Clip ‘n’ Climb, and Inclusive Music Project Holiday Club!
