7.7 Fun at the Year 7 Quiz Night

The annual Year 7 Quiz night took place in Week 2 this term with PLC joining us for two hours of fun and the opportunity for the two schools to socialise with each other. The event was held in the Dickinson Centre with roughly 250 students in attendance.

The night started with a small chance to get to know each other on the group table. Then the students used their combined brainpower to answer six rounds of questions. The night had some dancing, a famous faces activity and a small half time break with the chance to eat an ice cream and converse with each other.

Below are two reflections from boys in 8.7 who attended the Quiz Night:

"In a year that saw many of our traditional Scotch events cancelled due to COVID-19, we were definitely really happy when the Year 7 PLC Scotch Quiz Night could go ahead in Spring Term. Quiz Night is not only a great opportunity for the boys to catch up and socialise with some of the PLC girls they already know, but it also provides a relaxed and fun atmosphere to meet and make new friends. On behalf of all the Year 7 boys, we had an awesome night and many thanks to the staff and parents who took the time to organise this event for us. A special mention to the ultimate Quiz Master Mr T!"

"On Tuesday night of Week 2, we were privileged enough to participate in the annual Year 7 PLC Scotch Quiz Night. The event began with all of us entering the Dickinson Centre. Once we had found our tables and our PLC accompaniment for the night, we introduced ourselves. We talked for 10 minutes while waiting for the teachers to begin. After completing 30 questions, Mr Tresise brought icy-poles for everyone. After the final three rounds of questions, the winners were announced. The Quiz Night was complete. We all parted our ways and said goodbye to the PLC girls."
