This
was the first week for a new presentation topic to be trialled called
“Unusual/Beautiful Libraries” and Jemima and Ellie did the subject proud showing
that they had enjoyed and engaged in their research task and found some lovely
images of strange and beautiful libraries all over the world. They explained
the rich history of libraries to us using a completely innovative and very fun
game using audience participation. We loved it.
But
they were up against some stiff competition and we just couldn’t chose between
them so we decided to do something we had never done before…award joint first!
Joining them were Jasveer and Alex who presented “Genres in Literature” with
great expression and confidence that kept the audience intrigued in their
findings. The pair focussed on their favourite genre: Mystery, analysing
everything detective, crime, whodunit and suspense in fascinating detail. 
So, of
course, in 3rd was Kiki, Amshya and Lucy who not only offered
us the history and economics of the Library of Congress but showed everyone how
to deliver a perfectly shared, timed and thought through Kahoot quiz. Their
response to the Q&A was also exemplary. They certainly knew their stuff.
Very well done to all!!
The
last week was no exception in terms of competition. After a brutal 3 rounds of
quizzing which were extremely close between the four teams, it was ‘Team
Turtle’ who surged ahead and won by just 2 points. Congratulations to James,
Freddie, Lachie, Ollie and Ern for their top efforts!
We had fun and we hope you did too, Niamir’s! Thanks from the Library Team.
