    A reminder that the HS Play, an adaptation of Markus Zuzak's bestselling novel The Book Thief, is on next week. The story centers upon Leisel Meminger, a young German girl living in the midst of World War Two. As a book that is part of the Grade 10 reading list and also taught in MS Honors English, the play should prove to be both educational and entertaining. The play will be performed on Thursday 19th, Friday 20th and Saturday 21st of October at 6.30pm. There will also be a matinee at 2.30pm on the Saturday. Tickets are available from the cashier now. Here is the poster designed by Grade 12 student Tanya McCorkle:
