Literacy News

 

The school has a new mission!

 In the year 2009-10 the students in years 7, 8 and 9 jointly achieved a stupendous word count of 139,128,524  

 

Therefore our new target for 2010-11 is to
read 145,000,000 words by July 2011

 

Many students contributed over a million words each to last year's total, and were rewarded by being enlisted in the amazing 'Millionaire's Club'.

Student Millionaires receive a variety of special benefits from the LRC and any student who had qualified in 2009-10 will retain their increased borrowing allowances in 2010-2011.

At least one student worked especially hard to achieve this by the very last day of term!

 

However, to get their VIP passes to special LRC events, even existing Millionaires will need to read at least 1,000,000 words by the end of May 2011!

Every student who achieves this will automatically qualify for the entry to the Millionaire's Club and be mentioned in the School Newsletter.
