Author visits - 12th October and 18th October

Hi everyone, as per the letters that have been sent out previously. I am confirming the dates and times of our Year 2 author visits. 

Thursday 12th October - 1:30-2:30. This is in the school hall with an author called Jack Meggit-Phillips. During this special visit, Mr. Jack Meggit-Phillips will engage our young readers in an interactive creative writing workshop titled "Writing with Beasts." This hour-long session will include puppetry, a Q&A with the author and readings from his latest book, "The Beast and the Bethany: The Villain’s Showdown," which is set to be released this Autumn. Your child will also have the opportunity to receive inspiration and prompts to create and finish their own short stories.


Wednesday 18th October - 10-11. We will be leaving school after register to walk to the Dorchester Literary Festival and will be returning for 11:30. This is with an author called Neal Layton.
 Neal Layton is well-known for his engaging and beautifully illustrated children's books. During his visit, he will not only share his creative process and insights into the world of storytelling but will also interact with our young learners, inspiring their imaginations and love for reading.


Any other questions please let me know.

Miss White
