Celebrating Children’s Book Week
October 30, 2020Children’s Book Week 2020 was celebrated in the Secondary school from the 26th – 30th October. This year’s theme was “Curious creatures, wild minds.”
If you entered the secondary library cafe this week you could be forgiven for thinking you were in a jungle, replete with “curious creatures,” tropical plants and birdsong. The books featured in this year’s competition were celebrated on a static display, along with a selection of crazy creatures created by Year 7 Science students. Staff suggested their favourite books and these were displayed around the library. Each day a “Nature Narrative” was held in the quad at lunchtime, with volunteer staff members reading extracts from their favourite books – The BFG by Roald Dahl was a fan favourite. On Tuesday a book themed Quiz was held in the library with prizes awarded to the winning students. On Friday the French Club presented a French children’s book reading in the library at lunchtime. “Wild Minds” all around!

Have Sum Fun Competition
October 30, 2020
Friday, October 23rd, saw maths students from Years 7 to 10 compete in the Have Sum Fun Competition. Hosted at Aranmore Catholic College and Woodvale Secondary College our teams were put to the test with some challenging maths problems. The students should be commended on the way they represented St Stephen’s School and worked collaboratively to solve each round of questions. Have Sum Fun is always a great night of healthy competition and problem solving, and we hope many more students put their names forward to participate next year! Thank you to Mrs Amanda Ristovsky and Mrs Jane Robinson for supporting the teams on the night.
