Quiz Kids (Series) (1978-1985)

Quiz Kids was a half-hour game show for elementary school children produced in Corner Brook, Newfoundland. Each week a whole class arrived at the studio. From the class, six children are selected and divided into two groups, three under the word "QUIZ" and three under the word "KIDS." A panel was asked to choose a number which lit up, and the category of questions was declared. Questions were based on an ordinary child's knowledge of fairy tales, nursery rhymes, spelling, elementary science, and history/geography. Ten points were awarded for a correct answer. If an error was made, the group lost points and the question went to the opposing team. A version of the show was also carried in Toronto on CBLT on Saturdays and was available to other CBC-owned and-operated stations.

I was one of the children in Quiz Kids show from St. James School back in 1978 grade 4. Please help me, I really will like to get a copy of the tv show of the Quiz Kids back in 1978, St. James School grade 4. I will love to show my children and grandchildren this show. It will be a great memory for me. It will also be great for my children to keep for after when I passes on. I will pay for a copy of this. Can you please help me to get a copy of this? I hope I hear from you soon. Please give me good news.

Thank You
