During the last few weeks of the term, the library has been a hive of activity as pupils and staff joined together to celebrate this annual book event.

A whole school assembly delivered by Miss Locker and Mrs Thompson focused on the importance of reading, together with an entertaining video by ‘Roving Reporter’ Joel E.P a year 10 student who had interviewed members of staff about their reading habits.

Prior to the day the library hosted a week-long Book Fair, year 10 students Mollie Brown and Clintamol Johny, did a sterling job on the busy sales desk as excited pupils queued every lunchtime to make their purchases; many using their £5 school reward vouchers. The total sales generated £300 of free books for our library!

A ‘Literary Quiz’ had forms competing against each other for extra House Points. A fun quiz in which pupils had to match their teachers to literary book characters by personality traits or looks!

Staff and pupils went head-to-head in a ‘Bumper Book Quiz’ – 6 rounds of challenging questions. Thirteen teams entered and the victorious winners were SQUAD, 2^nd place went to the competitive English Department and 3^rd place went to The Chronicles of Year 7, the boys were ecstatic with their win!
