Year 8 have designs on their books for competition

Year 8 Chloe R was 'puntastic' as she won our annual Design a Bookmark competition!

“This year's theme was 'reading puns' and the entries were of an extremely high standard” said Assistant Head of English, Mrs Robinson-Ali, who led the competition.

There were over 50 entries which were narrowed down to six. Chloe's was a Pinocchio-inspired design and was voted as the favourite by Years 7-9.

Using the template provided, pupils had to design their bookmark within the area specified. The six finalists' designs were printed onto card and distributed to all readers.

Key Stage 3 pupils now have their own school bookmark where they can note their Accelerated Reader (AR) codes for the year.

Chloe said: "I wanted to do something connected with a film and it didn't take me too long. Art is one of my favourite subjects so I am delighted to win."

Runners-up were Sehr A, Shreya P, Evie C, Anna H, Finlay K with honourable mentions to Yusuf Y and Harriet H.
