International School Library Month 2014


The Millennium School, Mohali celebrates the ‘International School Library Month’ every year. The event had a great start with an array of activities related to books and reading. The school Library was decorated on the theme ‘ISLM’. The students at each level took part in the library quizzes enthusiastically.
Library Quizzes: -
The quizzes were conducted via audio visual tools on selected popular children’s books.  The students entered the ‘scrumptious’ world of Roald Dahl and celebrated the 50th anniversary of his most popular book ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’.  The students read his books and exchanged their book reviews with ‘Medan International School’, Indonesia via e mail. The primary level students participated in the quiz on the books of Enid Blyton. The students really enjoy reading her books on adventures and mystery. The junior students took a journey to an enchanting world of fairies, elves, goblins, pixies, etc. The winners were felicitated with medals, certificates, fairy tale masks and royal crowns.

Bookmark Exchange:-
This year, the students exchanged  bookmarks with a school in Spain and  two schools in Croatia. These are: - LAUDE Newton College (Spain), Primary School of Monte Zaro Pula (Croatia), OSNOVNA ŠKOLA TRNOVEC (Croatia)

Sharing of Book Reviews: -
 Besides Bookmarks, the students of TMS Mohali also wrote book reviews on their favourite author, Roald Dahl.
