We are currently hosting the @bucksbookaward this morning. We have students from eight schools including AGS! We have the wonderful @tiafisher_ whose book Not Going To Plan has just made the Carnegie Medal for Writing Shortlist!
World Book Day! Students packed into the library to take part in our quiz! The Y7 team of Theo and Routhu fought off tough competition to be crowned quiz champions! Everyone who took part received a WBD book and the winners received an AGSLibrary book bag and extra books!

Yesterday, Rabeeh in Year 8 organised a Ramadan quiz for KS3 students. He was an absolute star, creating the quiz and providing prizes to both the winners and everyone who took part! In the end Da'ud and Kinan who had led from start to finish were proclaimed the winners!

It's Pokémon Day today, so some of our Year 9 students are running a Kahoot...got to say we have a full house and a very excited group of students!
We are half-way through our 12 Days of Christmas and about to start Christmas Chaos. All students start out with a gift, but a roll of the Chaos dice might see them losing their gift!

To prevent any outrage, tears or jealously my introduction to the game will be:
It is not Christmas morning
I am not your parent
Your classmates are not your siblings

The BBA shortlist was announced last week, although our students have been eagerly reading the Longlisted books over the last few weeks. This is our book new display before students start taking them out and all we are left with are empty book stands! #AGSReads @bucksbookaward

Congratulations to Vinusan, who was the winner of our 'live' game of Cluedo. He correctly worked out that Auggie Pullman stole the Golden ticket from Narnia.

Today was Day 1 of Cluedo. 15 Informants from Years 8-13 scattered around school waiting to question players. Yes, it was total carnage, but everyone seemed to have fun and some of our Year 10 Informants were keen to do it all again tomorrow! youtu.be/dfYcGhB1KIQ

Today as part of LibraryFest, KS3 students decorated some ice-cream and ice-lolly fridge magnets! As you can see there are some delicious looking designs!
All through July we are running LibraryFest! So far we have had a Dinosaur as well as a 4th of July Quiz. Yesterday we had Lego@Lunch and Origami which is always popular!
Last quiz before half term was all about #CulturalDiversity. The quiz ended with fun 'The not even if I was starving round' where some of the Year 7 students were appalled by such delicacies such as Stargazy Pie, Fried Tarantulas and my personal favourite Jellied Moose Nose!
