In this new series, we will be meeting each of the various book groups throughout the Norwich School, with words from staff and pupils about how these groups have shaped their reading habits and furthered their love of reading.

Today, we hear from 2 members of the Fourth Form Book Group; Grace Adlam, U4, and Martha Peane, L4, to get an insight into what happens in Book Group!

When and why did you join Book Group?

Grace: “L4, I loved reading and my older brother had talked about it”

Martha: “I joined book group in September! I joined because I love reading and books”

What’s the best thing about coming to weekly meetings?

Grace: “Talking about the booking we are reading, reading together and I love the book related games and quizzes!”

Martha: “The best thing about coming to the weekly meetings is that we get to do really fun activities and I get to chat to people about books how love reading as much as I do”

Has being in the Book Group changed your reading habits at all? If so, how?

Grace: “Not really but only because I’ve always read a lot!”

Martha: “Being in Book Group has given me lots of reading recommendations!”

Have you got any reading recommendations you would like to share?

Grace: “The Hunger Games”

Martha: “Rooftoppers or The Explorer by Katherine Rundell”

In the photos below we can see the Fourth Form Book Group eagerly preparing for the Norwich School Doors Trail on World Book Day!

Throughout the Senior School 36 doors will be decorated in the theme of a certain book and it is up to pupils to follow the trail and win a sweet treat! (Whilst hopefully finding some book recommendations along the way!)
