On Monday 18th of August, Antonine College St. Joseph’s campus celebrated Children’s Book Week with a number of activities. In READ classes students played games such as guess the book and author from the emojis followed by several lunchtime activities that took place in the library.

On Monday, students used their knowledge of books to guess the book from the first line. It was a difficult activity as there were a range of books and no clear winner, but students had fun trying to guess the names of the books.

On Tuesday, there was no competition due to an early finish for parent teacher interviews but on Wednesday we had “Design Your Own Bookmark” organised and run by Marybel H, 12A. There were many entrants but there could only be one winner. Congratulations to Mary R, 7A and runners up Daniel B, 7C and Saly A, 9A.

On Thursday, students re-imagined their favourite books and designed their own book covers. All entries can be seen displayed on the library window. The winners of the competition were Michelle, 8A, with runners up Gabriella E, 8A and Michel S, 7A.

Throughout the week, students took part in online quizzes testing their knowledge of books and authors. Congratulations to all who took part in what was an exciting and fantastic week celebrating books and reading!

Happy reading!
