From Mrs Brebbia—Our Librarian
As part of World Book Day, the Senior school pondered the question, “What is the
World’s Best Question?”. Mr Fulton set the scene in Chapel and the provenance of
the mysterious yellow ‘Thunks’ (thought-provoking questions) that have appeared
in the Jubilee corridor over the past fortnight was finally explained. We hope that
they have provoked as many stimulating conversations in your homes as they have
at school! Staff and pupils alike have posted their questions on the giant question
marks in the Library. The best ‘original’ question will be determined after much deliberation
by Mr Fulton and Mrs Brebbia as there were a huge range of excellent
questions.
In your envelopes with this newsletter are a variety of book-related documents, including
an invitation to pupils from Reception upwards to participate in a
‘Readathon’ – a sponsored reading challenge. The Readathon will run from now
until Friday April 19th. If your child would like any help in choosing some reading
targets, there will be a helpsheet available in the Library next week, or they can ask
Mrs Brebbia for some guidance. All pupils participating in the Readathon will receive
a special book mark when they return their sponsorship card.
