Magic the Gathering and other trading card games such as Pokemon and Yu-gi-oh)<\/li>\n- Nintendo switch games – often in groups with individuals or teams going against each other<\/li>\n
- Colouring-in – a recent addition with a view to being a fun activity, yet also as a relaxing one to help relieve anxiety and stress. This is tied in with a display of books on mental health awareness.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n
We have some more formal activities on set days although these can be done on any day:<\/p>\n
Monday – Miniature Painting<\/strong>: Mrs Sinclair, the Librarian, ‘teaches’ pupils the basics of miniature painting, and even pupils teach Mrs Sinclair. The library, due to generous donations<\/a> over the years has a variety of miniatures pupils can choose from, which they can paint for the library collection, or keep for themselves, if they so wish. Some will paint up one to represent their character in Dungeons & Dragons activities we run on Tuesday after school and Friday activities period.<\/p>\n

Wednesday – Magic the Gatherin<\/strong>g<\/strong>: MtG is a strategy (collectable) fantasy card game which has been played in the library for many years. Individuals and teams can play against each other with cards that represent monsters, spells and other effects and equipment with the aim to reduce each other’s hit points from 20 to 0.<\/p>\n
We always welcome recommendations for activities, especially if pupil led, or suggestions for new board games – of which donations would be gratefully received. Might even look into having a few jigsaws available too.<\/p>\n
