Mayoral Make-A-Book Literacy Challenge

The Mayoral Make-A-Book Literacy Challenge is an extremely popular program for budding young authors and illustrators.

The City of Charles Sturt would like to acknowledge the land we occupy today is the traditional lands of the Kaurna people and that we respect their spiritual relationship with their country. We also acknowledge the Kaurna people as the custodians of the greater Adelaide region and that their cultural and heritage beliefs are still as important to the living Kaurna people today.
