CISN-S | Concordia 2025 Reading Week

Last Friday, the "The Great Gatsby" Knowledge Quiz Competition, jointly conducted by Concordia School - Secondary students and teachers, concluded successfully. The event attracted numerous contestants to compete on stage, creating an electrifying atmosphere of intense rivalry. Demonstrating profound understanding and solid knowledge of Fitzgerald’s timeless masterpiece, the contestants delivered a spectacular literary showdown for the audience.

This "The Great Gatsby" Knowledge Quiz Competition was not merely a test of wits, but a heartfelt tribute to literary legacy. The contestants' brilliant performances have breathed new life into this century-old classic, igniting fresh passion for Fitzgerald's masterpiece among all present.

This competition was not merely a showcase of artistic techniques, but a profound collision of intellectual perspectives. Through their works, our students delved deep into the novel's essence, annotating their visual creations with penetrating literary analysis. Some explored the disillusionment of the "American Dream," dissecting how Gatsby's wealth-constructed fantasy was ultimately swept away by historical currents; others contemplated the nature of love, tracing through Gatsby and Daisy's tangled relationship the struggle of genuine emotion against materialistic desires. These thoughtful interpretations breathed soul into every artwork, casting the brilliance of classic literature onto our contemporary world.
