Schools subscribing to Hampshire School Library Service are invited to participate in the Hampshire Picture Book Award 2017.

The Award, now in its eighth year, is for Year 1 pupils. It is designed to allow pupils of all abilities to access inspirational and imaginative illustrated books, and to decide the winner themselves. It provides children with a unique opportunity to be involved in a major county literary event and also gives them a real chance to enthuse about reading.

There is a charge of £80 to take part in the event. If you have more than 30 pupils taking part you may wish to consider purchasing additional sets. These can be ordered at a discount. There is a small school rate for schools with fifteen pupils or fewer in year 1. Qualifying schools can request a small school application form from us.

To find our more or to register your school to participate, please see our Promoting Reading/Hampshire Book Awards pages. Completed forms must be returned by Friday 14 October 2016.
