CBCA Youth Forum

Form III boys enjoyed an exciting excursion to Ravenswood for the 2026 CBCA Youth Forum, celebrating the six shortlisted books for the CBCA Older Readers Book of the Year.

The boys participated in lively discussion and passionate debate, sharing their responses to the books and exploring their themes, characters and significance.  

Hearing different perspectives challenged the boys to think more deeply about their reading, while exploring the entire shortlist introduced them to books they may not otherwise have chosen. We are incredibly proud of the boys, who represented Grammar so well through their enthusiasm, thoughtful contributions and respectful engagement throughout the day. A huge thank you to Ravenswood for generously hosting such a vibrant and memorable celebration of books, reading and young voices.
