Year 7 LitFest Waterstones Visit

As part of Maidstone LitFest we organised for our Year 7 students to visit Waterstones in Maidstone. This took place over a number of weeks with each form visiting separately.  The Year 7 students had the opportunity to browse the huge selection of books within the store. Every student who attended chose a new book to take home and keep courtesy of Maidstone Grammar School for Girls. 

One parent commented, “Just wanted to say thank you to all who organised the trip to Waterstones bookshop for my daughter and her Year 7 form class…  She was thrilled to be allowed to choose a book to keep, whilst there.   She chose a book by Katherine Rundell, as she is one of her favourite authors.

Thank you so much for giving the girls this wonderful opportunity.”

“I really enjoyed going with my form because it was fun to see what books everyone bought.” expressed IS in 7A

“I enjoyed spending time reading our books, and being able to share the shocking twists with our friends.” replied MD 7F when asked what her favourite part of the trip was.

We would like to thank Waterstones for their hospitality and all the help they gave to our students in choosing books.
