Here’s what a teacher in Australia
thought of the Reading Eggspedition
My Year 4 class have thrived while using Reading Eggspress. They love the lessons, books and activities provided to assist their learning. They like the games that they can play against each other.

FAQs
Who can participate?
This event is open to all schools in New Zealand without a Reading Eggs subscription. Schools or classes are required to register for the event to participate and be eligible for prizes.
How is the winner determined?
There are 4 prizes to win during this event.
-
Week 1 Prize: Prize goes to the school/class with the highest number of books read
-
Week 2 Prize: Prize goes to the school/class with the highest number of lessons completed
1 lesson, book = 1 point.
Points will be calculated by taking the total number of lessons or books and dividing that figure by the number of registered students on the trial.
This is to allow for fair competition between schools of different sizes.
For example, a school of 20 trialling students with 2,000 lessons completed, will give them a total score of 100. These 100 points are what are used to determine their leaderboard ranking.
When does the competition start and finish?
The Reading Eggspedition starts at 6:00am Monday 12th June (AEST) and will conclude at 11:59pm on Friday 23rd June (ASET).
