This week we have been celebrating Book Week at SEK-Qatar. There have been many exciting opportunities for students to learn more about some of our great books in the library, as well as take part in many games and activities based around literacy.

Some of the great activities included:

• Book mark making competitions
• Story writing
• Mystery Readers
• D.E.A.R (Drop Everything And Read)
• Read-A-Thon
• Book Nooks in the main hall

We had many parents come into school to join us, reading some of their favorite stories, or reading in their home language. We would like to thank all those parents who were able to come in and celebrate with us..

The PYP Student Council also contributed to the fun, by organising some fun days over the week.

• Funny Hat Day
• Reading in our PJs
• Teddy Bears ‘Book’nic

One of the most important part of our Book Week celebration is the Book Character Parade that happened on Thursday. Students dressed up as their favorite book character and shared with their friends!
