The only local interschool competition that gives children who’ve always loved to read, a chance to display their knowledge and win prizes for it!
A record twenty-nine teams of students and two teams of staff from Tyne and Wear and Northumberland took part in this year’s Mini Lit Quiz, which is written and produced ‘in house.’ Our Quiz is modelled on the Kids Lit Quiz (UK) with both individual and team prizes, but has five rounds instead of ten and its own unique style. Each round of ten questions follows a particular literary theme but, unlike the KLQ, there is also a Pictionary round featuring picture clues and between-round elimination competitions for cash prizes.
The sun shone down on the Key Stage Two students today as they enjoyed a variety of workshops to investigate how we can stay healthy and happy. This included trying out smoothies to keep us healthy, learnt how playing the djembe drums as a group helped our social skills, participated in zumba and hoopstarz to build up our physical wellbeing and made glitter jars to help our mental wellbeing.
We’ve partnered with Go Raise – a brilliant and effortless way to raise money for our school.
