Book Week Magic
Book Week Magic at St Edwardâs College: A Celebration of Stories and Imagination
St Edwardâs College was transformed into a literary wonderland during Book Week in Week 5, as students and staff alike embraced the joy of reading through a vibrant array of activities that brought stories to life. From swashbuckling pirates to mischievous wizards, the Campus buzzed with creativity, laughter, and a shared love of books. The 2025 theme for Book Week was âBook an Adventureâ.
Dress-Up Day: Characters Come Alive
One of the weekâs most anticipated events was the âDress as Your Favourite Book Characterâ day. The halls were filled with Harry Potters, White Rabbits, Sherlocks, and even a few dinosaurs, as both students and teachers stepped into the shoes of beloved literary figures. The effort and imagination on display were nothing short of spectacular, turning the school into a living storybook.
Photobooth Fun
To capture the magic, a themed Photobooth was set up, giving everyone a chance to strike a pose in costume. Whether solo or with friends, the snapshots were a perfect way to commemorate the week and celebrate the characters that have inspired us.
Kahoot Challenge: Battle of the Book Buffs
Students tested their literary knowledge in a fast-paced Kahoot challenge, answering questions about classic and contemporary books. The competition was fierce, but the atmosphere was electric, with cheers erupting as students raced to the top of the leaderboard. It was a brilliant way to combine learning with funâand maybe even discover a new favourite read.
Scavenger Hunt: A Story-Fueled Adventure
Designed by the ever-creative Mr Le Page, the book-themed scavenger hunt sent students on a quest across the campus, solving clues and uncovering hidden clues inspired by famous stories. The hunt encouraged teamwork, critical thinking, and a deeper appreciation for the books behind each clue.
Treasure Island Room: A Journey into Fiction
One of the standout experiences was the immersive Treasure Island room, where students stepped into the world of Robert Louis Stevensonâs classic tale. With maps, props, and pirate-themed puzzles, the room offered a hands-on adventure that made literature feel thrilling and real.
Daily Competitions: Celebrating Bookish Brilliance
Throughout the week, daily competitions kept the excitement aliveâfrom emoji guessing the book titles to finding Harry Potter characters around the library and book in a jar challenges. Winners were celebrated for their creativity and enthusiasm, proving that Book Week is as much about participation as it is about passion.
A Week to Remember
Book Week at St Edwardâs wasnât just a celebrationâit was a reminder of the power of stories to connect, inspire, and transform. Whether through costumes, daily activities, or treasure hunts, students engaged with literature in ways that were playful, meaningful, and unforgettable. Here's to the books that shape usâand the joy of sharing them together. We canât wait to see what everyone will come dressed as in 2026.
