Battle of the Books 

Each year, the Niagara District Christian Schools compete in a "Battle of the Books." The Junior Team is made up of students in grades 4-6, and the Senior Team is made up of students in grades 7 & 8. Each member reads a selection of eight books. In the Spring, the school teams come together in a competition to determine who has the most knowledge about the eight selected books.  They always enjoy their battle day with the team mates, eating pizza, and spending time with other schools.  It is an excellent time of community building between schools.  We are so blessed to have access to so many wonderful books written by talented and gifted authours.
