To celebrate and highlight all the author events that took place in the Library this year, me and Miss Pye created #SmithyReads display in the school hallway.

My favourite thing is definitely the pupils’ feedback! Here are some examples:

“Amazing! Her books are really interesting!” Ben L. (S1) about Maisie Chan
“Listening to them explaining their creative process and their backgrounds – it was amazing.” Amy M. (S1) about Metaphrog
“Really got the group together, made us feel a part of something and transported us into his experiences.” Struan Y. (S3) about Alex Wheatle
“Super unique, it didn’t feel like a lesson.” Daniel S. (S3) about Tawona Sithole

Looking forward to hosting even more author events and workshops in the next school year!
