The big BNC Easter egg hunt!

Olivia @ the BNC 09 April 2020

Welcome to the big BNC Easter egg hunt!

If there’s one thing the BNC team love, its chocolate eggs. But, if there’s one thing we love EVEN more than chocolate eggs, it’s reading the Hub and seeing what the Burnet News Club has been up to!

Your challenge

Join the BNC Easter Egg Hunt and follow the trail of clues hidden on the Hub! Each clue sends to you a page you might have missed or points you to a different type of activity to get involved with over the rest of the year, for example: asking a question to an expert.

How to play

Scattered around the BNC Hub are some Easter egg clues that look like this:

You need to read each clue and then look for the correct page that it’s pointing to. You’ll know if you are on the right page because the next clue will be hiding in the comments section.

There are six eggs to find in total. See if you can find them all. Here’s your first clue…

Clue number 1

At the end of each Issue, the BNC nominates one club who have contributed fantastically to the discussion and shown the Burnet News Club skills in lots of their post and comments. This club is called the Thought Leader. The page you’re looking for announced the Thought Leader for a topic where there was a conflict, people were speaking-up to show their opinions and there was a historical link with Britain. Can you find the page?
Good luck!

PS. Don't scroll down any further than here for now. A final instruction is here, but you need to go on the hunt first!

Well done! You may have made it back here after finding all six eggs. If that’s the case, you're a Hub hero! Why don't you tell us one of the following:

- Something new you’ve learnt ABOUT the Hub
- Something new you’ve learnt ON the Hub
- Something you would like to do MORE of on the Hub

Enjoy the rest of the holiday. From your BNC Easter Bunny.

  How I Found All Six Eggs:
  
  Whilst I was looking at all the schools that have participated in Burnet News Club, I noticed the 'BNC Easter Egg Hunt'. As I looked further into this hunt, the page's title read, 'Comments From The BNC Easter Egg Hunt.' and as curiosity swept over me, I was able to find all the clues. I hoped I wasn't cheating and did not intend this to happen, so I followed the trail without this information- it was a lot of fun and spared my boredom. I am very thankful that The Burnet News Club team are coming up with such ingenious ideas and making me smile during this tedious lockdown.
  
  P.S. I spotted the egg in the profile picture :)

        It was because I entered my competition entry on Thursday and to my surprise, it was not published. So, I that is why I queried you why my comment not published. However, in the morning, I presume that Olivia had already kindly published for me. Sorry for any confusion.

These eggs show that the sensitive things must be handled carefully in our life and take care of the other people in the world.
