On Tuesday 27th March, my form group of 8.4 reached the ceiling with our bricks and won the competition to make the highest brick wall. (Only paper "bricks," though! We received one "brick" for every book we scored 100% in.) It took us nearly two terms but we finally won. Our wall is 10 bricks wide and contains more than 700 bricks. To win, everyone tried their hardest and took lots of quizzes. Some read small books and some big ones; but everyone contributed to our wall. This competition has now ended for the year 8s but is still going on for the year 7s. However, instead of building the highest wall they have to build the longest bookworm, and if they are able to make the bookworm as long as the length of the field; the head teacher, Mr Franchetti, will award them with a special prize.

  
Congratulations to the winners, 8.4, and the runners up, 8.1, and every form that participated. Good luck too to the Year 7s!
Carry On Reading!
