The HELL Reading Challenge

By Catherina Hengst | Posted: Wednesday July 25, 2018

The New Zealand Book Awards Trust have teamed up again with HELL Pizza to encourage school-age children to read more. Their reading programme runs through schools and libraries nationwide. Our school library is again offering this reading challenge reward system.

What is the HELL Reading Challenge?

The HELL Reading Challenge rewards New Zealand children for reading books in an incentivised reading programme that's simple: Read for Pizza!

Children complete a 'pizza wheel' by reading seven books, and then go to any HELL Pizza store and redeem it for a free 333 HELL Pizza... It’s that easy! Every student must read 7 books to fill up their wheel to be able to receive their free pizza.

There is no limit on the number of wheels a child can fill up between March and December, provided they are stamped and authenticated by a librarian.

Easy as 1, 2, 3: Pick up a reading wheel from the school library, get a slice of reading done and start getting your pizza wheel clicked. Then top off your reading with a pizza!

Rules

• Each wheel is good for one 333 kids’ pizza from any HELL store nationwide.
• Each wheel must be signed by a teacher/librarian from our school and stamped with our official stamp.
• The HELL Reading Challenge is open to students in Years 1-8.
• Pizza must be picked up in person in-store only. One pizza per visit per child.
• Wheels are non-transferable for money.
• This offer expires on 3 December 2018.
• HELL stores have the right to refuse this offer in cases of suspected fraud, or when presented with unsigned and unstamped wheels.
