Words weekly At the start of the Lent term Dulwich College set off on a journey around the world where none of them left the comfort of their own home or Dulwich College. This competition has really encouraged boys to read and let their imaginations take them somewhere amazing! Fraser Cox

The imaginary world At first I didn’t massively enjoy the scheme. However I started to read books out of my comfort zone and it is definitely interesting. I have come across books that I would never have encountered without the help of the scheme. Will Wakely Somehow making reading into a competition The competition is very exciting, with 8L and 8W firmly in the lead - but over the holiday anyone can catch up. I am very excited for the end of the competition to see how each class has made its way around it. Gus Laughton - Scott

Around the world in 80 reads This competition is a form on form battle as to who can read and review 80 books the quickest. I personally love the competition as it helps you learn about the amazing cultures and religious beliefs of the countries on the scheme. Lorcan Tierney
