We had the pleasure of welcoming Martin Impey into school to share his fabulous book, 'Blitz - One Family's War'. It was brilliant to hear about his incredibly thorough writing and research process. He reinforced that as a writer and illustrator he makes mistakes throughout the publishing journey and that is why resiliency is a vital attribute to have in life. He blew us away when he drew two of the characters for us in about three minutes whilst taking questions. What a wonderful and informative session.
Years 5 and 6 were delighted to welcome author Bethany Walker into school to share her latest book, 'Medusa Gorgon's Bad Hair Day'. It was great fun hearing about what inspired Bethany to write and how she has taken a well-known character from the past and created something exciting for primary readers. The children and staff loved it.
