In late November, all of Year 7 (and a few Year 8’) were treated to a visit by children’s author Tom Mitchell. Our Year 7 and 8 Book Club have been reading Tom’s books this term and were particularly excited about his visit.  Tom talked about the inspirations and funny stories behind his books and about how he researches his themes to create a narrative. This was a wonderful opportunity to engage and encourage our reading ethos across the school. There was much laughter and excitement all around, which culminated in a fun question and answer session.
