Student Star Reviewer Competition Winners!

I was impressed by Meika’s idea of her book review of The Seriously Extraordinary Diary of Pig presented as an enjoyable and eye catching pig themed slideshow. This format worked really well and gave a snapshot of the fun to be had reading the book without giving too much away!

Crystal is well known within the school, and certainly within the English department, for always being a driven and conscientious pupil. Her book review displays her integrity and attention to detail, and even at a time when she is not able to be in school Crystal is continuing to make huge efforts with her education. 

Young Callum is my most enthusiastic Y7 student and it is a privilege to work with him. If ever allowed to be on “Mastermind” his specialist subject would be the David Walliams books. Callum seems to closely identify with so many of the Walliams storylines. He’s read & reviewed them all so choosing THE ONE for his entry to the competition wasn’t easy!

Safiyyah’s thought provoking and heartfelt review challenges the reader to pick up and consider “The Life You Can Save” and make a difference by doing so.

Nura’s review effectively expressed how the themes of “Clover Moon” by Jaqueline Wilson inspired her and then explained the reasons why in a heartwarming way that urges the reader to try the book for themselves.

When reading Oscar’s review of Boy 87 I felt that as a reader he had been totally immersed in the story and had conveyed that sense of this very movingly in his choice of words.

Kirsty’s insightful review of More Than This gave just enough of a glimpse of the characters dilemmas and plot strands to make us want to take up the book and find out more.
