Year Nine 2015 Book Trailers

Once again the ISC and Year 9 have collaborated in delivering the popular Book Trailer unit. The project was started last term and it was a great opportunity to showcase “the best of” this week when we held our 4th Gippsland Grammar Book Trailer Award presentation in the Lecture Theatre. The event was hosted by Tyler Smith, our Year 9 cohort's English teacher and all present thoroughly enjoyed watching the sixteen shortlisted book trailers.  Deputy Head of Garnsey, Kate Arnup, had the daunting task of judging. Kate is currently on Long Service Leave and we are grateful that she generously gave up her time to do this. Penny Monger (Acting Head of Garnsey Campus and Head of English) announced that the winner of the competition was Alice Jones with "Attachment”. Alice goes into the "hall of fame" and received a $50 book voucher. Receiving the $25 book vouchers for being highly commended were Alex Chan with "We"and  Zyn Ang with "Sold". The crowd favourite was Tom Jackson’s scary “Troll Hunters.”
