We had the most amazing session with Mike.
The children learnt to draw robots and penguins and we had a world premiere of '10 Little Unicorns.' The children absolutely loved it and the staff were so grateful for his creative ideas and inspiration.
We can't thank him enough for his time and his effort putting this all together.

Chirtra Soundar was a wonderful guest speaker. Her presentation was detailed, engaging and had a huge impact on the pupils' progress. They all were able to use the information they gained from the workshop to develop their own children's books.
We will most certainly be in contact about possible visits in the future.

Helen was absolutely fantastic, and so engaging for a whole school session (EYFS-Year 6). The younger ones loved her story telling and the older children enjoyed learning to draw and discovering more about becoming an author/ illustrator. The virtual pack provided before the session was brilliant!

Everyone had a super day when John visited our school. The videos he sent beforehand were fun and got the children ready for the day. They all enjoyed beginning to make the pop-ups and moving parts for their books and are keen to continue and finish them. The staff commented on how enthusiastic the children were. Thank you John

Sophie was excellent. The children loved her stories and the workshop for our school aged children was pitched well. The younger children loved listening to her read a story. Thank you for everything Sophie.

Simon was fantastic. He inspired the children across Key Stage 2 with his life story and how he never gave up in his dream to publish a book. He motivated children to become readers and writers and was perfect for World Book Week.

We booked Daniel to come and work with three schools in our MAT during a literacy festival. He spent three days working with the three schools. The work he did with the children was fantastic and really supported the theme of the week. All the feedback from the schools within the Academy was extremely positive. Daniel made a real connection with the children teaching them about how he writes and where he gets his ideas from to how he gets these down on paper. His workshops with KS2 were engaging and really gave the children a starting point to produce some fantastic writing in the week. I would absolutely have Daniel back in our schools to share his fabulous stories and work creatively with the children. Thank you Daniel for enhancing our learning in our literacy week.

A very successful visit, thank you.
The children enjoyed your input and we have incorporated some of your suggestions for story ideas into the work we have sent home during the school closure.
Thank you, Christina
