Year 5 children from one other independent school & 4 state primary schools were invited to attend. 

The children listened to a very powerful & inspiring presentation by Katherine Rundell, before enjoyng photos & receiving a signed copy of her latest book.

Aims

To offer an opportunity to meet a well-esteemed children’s writer.

To inspire children.

To share a resource that local state schools would not otherwise be able to access.

To share a ‘special’ event with children from other schools.

Impact

The children were buzzing with enthusiasm on the minibuses on the journey back to their schools.

Schools are keen to be included in other such events.
