On Monday the 11th of April I went to the Write A Book Awards Ceremony. The awards ceremony took place at the Raddison Hotel in Galway. When I got there all the children gathered in the hotel lobby. About 5 minutes later we were called into a big room. We were then all divided into groups, I went into the 5th class group, next all the 240 children there got a number and went into a big room to find their seat.
At the beginning of the ceremony we played a game where you had to catch a fish (but it wasn’t real!) and after that a few kids at a time went to the side of the stage and received a medal. Then we went on stage and each persons name and name of their book was called out. When we were getting off the stage we each got a certificate. At the end when everyone was about to leave we all went on stage and danced to music.
I had a wonderful night!
