Congratulations to the winners of the Book Week Scotland Inter-House and Staff Book Quiz: Gordon House, captained by Kirsten Sutherland in S6.

This annual and popular event was again very competitive and all teams did well. Innes and Seafield Houses were in joint second place and the staff team, called For Whom the Bell Tolls, also fought a good battle. Thanks to Novelties Book Club pupils for scoring the quiz. Huge thanks to Head Student, Alana Baird and to Depute Head Students Finlay Munro and Zara Munro for hosting it all brilliantly.

Thanks to all who came along and supported this #teamEA exciting hugely enjoyable Book Week Scotland event. 

The Taste It at EA: multi-cultural food with book taster was on Tuesday evening this week and it was a fabulous family event during our Book Week Scotland celebrations. Anna Malecka, Katie Tyczka and Alana Baird in S6 delivered a presentation on diversity in Elgin Academy to a rapt audience.

 This family event was all about diversity, books and food and it was wonderful to welcome families to our library. Thanks to everyone who came along to this event.

Matilda would be a great help because she reads lots of books and has a good personality.

Dr John Watson seems really comfortable to be around.

Sam from Lord of the Rings  is willing to go through the toughest obstacles and still came out with joy and hope left in him.
