Carnegie Quiz

Eighty pupils from the six local schools came together today for a quiz on the books shortlisted for the Carnegie Medal. In mixed teams any shyness soon dissipated as they collaborated over the correct answers. A break for juice and delicious cookies in the middle refreshed spirits. A Librarian's Award for a keen and enthusiastic reader and reviewer from each school plus edible prizes for the winning team, and the pleasant afternoon was soon over. Our thanks to Abingdon School for hosting this enjoyable event.
