Literacy Quiz

June 14, 2019 By Tania Savage

Kid’s Lit Quiz            
A team of 4 students from Room 1, Cardinal McKeefry School, have been preparing to compete in the Wellington Heat of the Kid’s Lit Quiz. Since being chosen in March Lucas, Alisha, Dominic and Jamie have been Reading….. Reading …… Reading! Then came the Wednesday practices with Estelle in the library. Finally the day for the competition arrived on Tuesday 7th May. Unfortunately, on the day Jamie was unwell, so they would be competing as a team of 3. They excitedly entered the iCentre at Samuel Marsden School and joined the 52 other teams. Estelle discovered that there was a reserve for the Mount Cook Team and so Mananya was able to join our team. It was a win-win because she got to participate and we had a full team. Answering 10 rounds of 10 questions ranging from Topics such as Food, Hobbies, Hats, to Literary Knowledge they conferred and wrote an answer for every question. Their best round was ‘Gods and Goddesses’ with full marks. There was a sudden death with 14 other teams in that round also having 10 out of 10. Dominic was first up with his hand and answered the Quizmaster’s question correctly winning Whitcoulls vouchers for the whole team. The team were proud to score 78.5 and being placed 13th.
Congratulations to the CMcK Lit Quiz Team for representing our school so well.  By Lucas & Dominic
