Once again this year Cerdon College played host to over thirty teams across NSW in one of the Sydney heats of Kids Lit Quiz 2020.
Dubbed the ‘Olympics of reading’ the competition invites students from across Australia and indeed the world, to come together and test their knowledge of everything related to books!
The competition took place late last term as schools began to move to online learning, and to adhere with social distancing restriction the quiz was also zoomed across all participating schools.
Although the experience was a little different for everyone this time around, there was still a great sense of excitement amongst participating students. Cerdon was represented by four teams, composed of students from year 7 and year 8.
These girls had worked hard over the term to learn how to work together to work through many questions and activities all related to books!
Congratulations to all the girls who participated in the 2020 KLQ and particularly to the two teams who won their rounds and collected book prizes. Congratulation also to Cerdon team 3 who also took out 5th place in the competition.
Well done girls!

Another fantastic effort from the Year 12 Design Technology Students, with eight quality major works submissions presented to the HSC markers last week. Problem identification and methodologies to solve these problems using the 'Design Thinking Process' were evident during the twelve months. From designing a floating house in flood-prone areas through to designing aeroplane access and egress for people with disabilities, Cerdon students went on the inquiry pathway, empathizing with the end user and solving identifiable problems with their creations. Well done, Year 12 2023 Design and Technology Students.
