Seven Before Seven Challenge

At Queensbury Academy, we believe literacy is the key to success, in school and in life. That’s why we’re encouraging all our incoming Year 7 students to dive into seven fantastic books this summer, before joining us in September:

• New Kid: A Graphic Novel – Jerry Craft
• The Chronicles of Narnia – C.S. Lewis
• The Boy at the Back of the Class – Onjali Q. Raúf
• The Light in Everything – Katya Balen
• Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief – Rick Riordan
• The Final Year – Matt Goodfellow
• You Are Awesome – Matthew Syed

These titles have been handpicked to inspire imagination, build empathy, and spark a lifelong love of reading.

We’re proud to have a wonderful library at Queensbury, and an absolutely brilliant librarian who’s always full of recommendations. Whether you're a confident reader or just getting started, she’ll help you find a book you love.
