Book Week 2021 was colossal at Carmel.Ìý All year groups adored completing daily book week quizzes and the teacher ‘Guess Who’ quiz wasÌýa particular hit.
On Tuesday, the upper primary students had a fabulous presentation by local author Cristy Burne, who spoke about taking normal events then adding some ridiculous or disgusting twistsÌýto make an exciting story. Cristy, a scientist, also showed the students how she includes cool scientific facts in her books.
Wednesday was the big event – the Book Week Parade!Ìý All students sashayed across the stage to share their costumes.
Mazal Tov to the winners of the colouring in competition andÌýthe hugely competitive ‘Reading in Unusual Places’ competition.ÌýIt was terrific to see so many students participate. The judges were left with a very tricky job.
Book Week concluded on Friday with a celebration assembly in the Sylvia and Harry Hoffman Hall where we heard Book Week news from all year groups and awarded book vouchers to many winners across the School. Thanks to our fabulous staff members for their input and particularly Mrs Julia Creasy who organised the week. See more photos on Carmel's Facebook page.
