World Book Day 2023
We celebrated world book on the 2nd March with a flurry of activities ranging from online quizzes, a big book quiz, missing words and guess the book by its cover with prizes awarded for the most correct answers.
There were two themed scavenger hunts, Harry Potter and Percy Jackson, with students attempting to track down the teachers wearing the name badges of characters from the books from the clues provided.
One of the LRC's DofE volunteers, Taneesha Roy, ran a wonderful craft activity where students could create a book mark.
Other competitions over the course of the week included redesigning a Harry Potter book cover and writing a book review or reviewing a book in three emojis.
In addition we had 40 new books for students to choose from especially for World Book day, a mix of titles suitable for Years 7 and 8 and some more challenging reads for the Year 9s.
