Kids-Lit

 Kids-lit

Yesterday we had a kids-lit competition,kids lit is where the top chosen readers from each school get together and challenge their knowledge on books. The quiz master (Mr Mills) gives us questions o each category and we have to chose a joker (a points double up) and tell them some examples of the category are; dogs,witches,places,authors or something like that. There is also something called a visual category where we are given pictures and have to find out what or who there from (e.g: superman symbol,Hogwarts crests,deathly hallows). 

My team (Olivia,Kyah,Tom and myself) although we didn't win were able to win $5 for getting a top score in a category. The 1st place winners would go to Wellington to compete in the nationals,even though internationals are unable to happen due to covid. I hope that if your school does it and you enjoy reading you think to consider it.
