Book Week Scotland

Calderhead High School celebrated Book Week Scotland in style this year. This is an annual celebration of reading and this year the theme was “Blether”. Twenty S1 and S2 pupils were awarded tickets to the Blether Bistro in the Library on 21st November to reward their hard work and progress in class. They were treated to a cup of hot chocolate and biscuits while they enjoyed reading their books in the library.

Pupils also participated in a creative writing competition and there were many excellent entries – it was very difficult choosing the eventual winners. Congratulations to Ryan in S1 and Bailey in S2. Well done to our runners up, Macy and Chloe in S1 and Neve and Carla in S2.

There was also a Book Blether in the Library on 20th November at lunchtime, where everyone was asked to talk about their favourite book, and, inspired by the Scottish Book Trust’s twitter challenge, the book group created a book domino run in the library at lunchtime on Friday.
