Thanks Cassie @MidlandsCLS for our year 9 booktalking today! Students got to hear about some amazing books and borrowed them from the library. We can't wait for Claire to visit some more students on Friday... ๐
Our two book clubs will be looking at all these books -and taking them home to read!
Congratulations to the authors and illustrators. Our librarian, Ms Codling, is a judge for #CKG22 and is feeling very emotional about the lists coming out today!
We are delighted to reveal the 2022 Yoto Carnegie and Kate Greenaway Medal shortlists!
Celebrating the power of friendship and pictures to create empathy and connection, we hope this yearโs shortlists will inspire and empower young readers. #CKG22

Some of the year 7 and 8 students taking part in @Reading_Rampage enjoyed a virtual talk from @cath_howe this morning. We loved hearing about her inspiration, and are excited for some more Reading Rampage activities coming soon!
Students have been getting stuck into @Reading_Rampage and writing reviews of the books! Victoria House are currently in the lead - but will anyone else be able to catch them?
Do Asiya and Mohammad's reviews make you want to read these books by @YoungSamurai and @rosswelford?
