TC Library

Closing Chapter 2023

As the year comes to a close, it’s time to celebrate the reading achievements of our students (and staff) who have been visiting the library this year!

Congratulations to the following Year 7 students who have gained entry to the prestigious 100 Club for accumulating 100 or more points of reading:

• Samson Birt
• Jack Johnson
• Bryce Kyte
• Jackson Lang
• Elias Luu
• Eli McPherson
• Zachery Yau

Harry Bellamy in Year 8 was the only student who successfully completed the entire Genre Challenge by reading a whopping 22 books in 16 different genres. Well done, Harry!

The Year 9 Class Reading Challenge was won by Mrs Mariotti’s Thursday class. Whilst some believe they were motivated by the prize of sweet treats, many others saw them take out the win with pure grit, determination and bragging rights against the rest of the Year 9 cohort! It was amazing to witness some boys read their first full book in a long time to contribute to their class tally.  

And finally, five staff members completed the Bookopoly reading challenge by reading 28 books in a range of categories, including some strange requirements listed on ‘chance’ cards. Congratulations to Su-fen Chung, Ciaran Johns, Sharon Marwick, Tahlia Peacham and Maranne Purnell.
