Coventry has always proven a popular heat and even though the heat moved to an afternoon one all the teams had a great time. This was Mrs Powell's first time as organiser after taking over from a colleague and it was very well organised. Oundle School came first and third. Well done to Octavia, Alice, Saul and Alexander all from the Oundle #2 team. In second place was Blue Coat 2. The book prizes were generously donated by the Coventry School Library Service and thank you to all the staff from The Coventry School Service for helping out again. I was personally pleased to meet for the first time one of the KLQ sponsors, Ray Dyer, from Peters Books who attended today's heat.
Happy reading

About the Kids' Lit Quiz
The Kids' Lit Quiz is an annual quiz for students aged 10 - 13 years. Teams of four students, from Year 6, 7 and 8, are asked to answer 100 questions on children's literature divided into ten categories, which vary each year. Teams work collaboratively to answer each question put to them by the New Zealand Quizmaster Wayne Mills.
A school can enter up to two teams. There are 18 regional heats in the UK. The winning team from each region competes in the National Final which in 2014 will be held at Kings' College School Wimbledon, London. The overall UK winning team will be invited to compete for the International Title in
Connecticut in the summer of 2015.
