As part of NLC\u2019s Read to Succeed initiative, Airdrie Academy had the pleasure of welcoming writer and illustrator Oisin McGann. S1 pupils were treated to Oisin\u2019s humourous presentation which focused on the types of books he writes, the inspiration behind his writing and the creative writing process. The school was gifted with a fabulous illustration which Oisin drew as he answered the many questions asked by pupils inspired by his talk. Pupils also had the opportunity to purchase a book\"\" and have it signed.<\/p>\n

All pupils are encouraged to read for pleasure and the school library has something to suit every reading age and ability. The school has recently received a large collection of new books so that all S1 pupils, recently welcomed into the school, can also gain the benefits of reading for pleasure.<\/p>\n

Thanks for the visit Oisin!<\/p>\n
