Book Week in the Libraries!

Book Week arrived at SMC and once again, activities in our Libraries were extremely well received by our students.

“Book an Adventure” was this year’s theme, and staff took every opportunity to dress up and enjoy their week! 

Competitions and giveaways on each campus were always enjoyed by staff and students, but this year’s highlight would most definitely have been our Author talk by the wonderful Mimi Kwa.

Mimi, a renowned author, journalist, broadcaster, actor and TV Host, has graced different media aspects for over two decades and we were delighted to hear her speak so warmly and openly to our students. Her most recent book, House of Kwa, was just the tip of the iceberg, as she told of her journalistic career (exploits) and kept us all spellbound with her tales.

House of Kwa is a wonderful story, telling of four generations of family, traditions, conflict, intergenerational trauma, resilience, forgiveness and most importantly, acceptance. It was an absolute pleasure to have Mimi join us for Book Week.
