The library was transformed into a spooky world of mystery and adventure for our recent Torchlight Tales event. Armed with a torch and scrolls of haunting and thrilling book quotes tied with string, students gathered round to take turns reading aloud, sharing plenty of gasps, laughs and memorable moments.
After a short break to enjoy some ghoulish snacks, students explored the nooks and crannies of the library in search of hidden symbols to solve the Codebreaker Challenge and reveal a series of spooky atmospheric words.
All students received a copy of the new Fear Files title by Christopher Edge, A Trick of the Light, with each student reading a few lines from the opening page in turn. The tension was palpable! It was fantastic to see so many students enthusiastically joining in and discovering new stories and authors.
A huge thank you to everyone who attended and helped make the event such a success.
