Tom Palmer, Children's Author, Visit

3rd December 2015
Tom Palmer visited us on Thursday. He inspired the children with his stories of becoming an author, and shared the true message of perservering to achieve your dreams. Years 5 and 6 enjoyed a workshop on writing - focussed on World War 1 and the England Football team. Years 3 and 4 also enjoyed a workshop on football story writing.
There were plenty of opportunities to ask questions, and the children challenged Tom with thoughtful questions.
The sessions ended with a penalty shoot-out - for answering quiz questions successfully. 
 
We were thrilled to read Tom's tweet about the day: 'It's an outstanding school. Widely read.'
