This World Book Day at TRS proved to be a great success thanks
to the active engagement of students and the participation of staff, who looked
fabulous in their departmental costumes!
The involvement this year of the Geography and English departments in
planning and developing activities with the Librarians, led by Ms Roberts, was key to this
success.
As
well as distributing book tokens to students via form tutors, creating World Book Day book
marks, displays and a competition PowerPoint for use in form time, the
Librarians worked with the Geography department to create and deliver some
excellent Library Lessons. These
included a lesson on banned books, where the students broke into groups and, following
discussions, had to correctly identify why and where in the world particular,
often iconic, books were banned.
Year 13 students took photographs of the day,
which we look forward to sharing. In the
meantime, below are photographs of the three Librarians as 33.6 recurring
Dalmatians from 101 Dalmatians by Dodie Smith and the Drama Department, who
were literary characters that embody madness and the Geography Department as Roald Dahl book characters. The prize for best costume was won by the Drama Department.
