Kids’ Lit Quiz 2018
This year’s regional heat of the annual literary competition proved to be the hardest yet. With rounds as obscure as Ducks and Drakes and Rocks and Stones, not to mention Squirrels and lastly, Unicorns, we were seriously challenged.
Expecting to be quizzed on books, we soon discovered that the word book would be interpreted very loosely. Manga, popular merchandising, film and TV were not off-limits in this very gruelling quiz! Questions skipped from The Last of the Mohicans – surely not a children’s book – to My Little Pony via the classics, comics, fairy tales and Disney. It was a real mixed bag!
We are so proud of our Y7 and Y8 teams who maintained their concentration and enthusiasm throughout and thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
Our Y7 team: Finlay, Ethan, Izzy and Amy
Our Y8 team: Imogen, Elspeth, Tom and Jack
