Kids Lit Quiz 2011

It was great to see Durham represented in the North East Regional Heat of the Kids Lit Quiz on  Monday.  Belmont Community School, Durham Johnston, Durham High School for Girls and The Hermitage all had teams entered in this international quiz.

A fun afternoon was had by all, staff and students, and it was great to see so many students who were not only enthusasitic about reading but also very knowledgeable.

Durham High School for Girls were the highest placed Durham School finsihing in 2nd and losing the heat by 1 point to Gosforth Central.  The girls showed excellent all round knowledge but especially in the Music and Rabbits Rounds where they scored full marks.

Belmont Community School also did well in their first time entering the competition and finished in 6th place.
