The LBS 150 challenge is still going strong over a year since it was launched. Students across all years have been very determined to complete the challenge by consistently fulfilling the requirements of the schools stimulating book review. Students are required to evaluate significant scenes, characters and important themes displayed throughout the book they are reading. In return for their rigorous academic work, they are awarded certificates, badges, lollies and more.
