We had a fantastic day with Katya Balen earlier this month. Year 7 are all reading October October in their library lessons and loved hearing about Katya’s inspiration behind the book. Some excellent work in the writing workshops too!

SUPER excited to be welcoming Katya Balen into school on Friday 10th October. As well as a talk with Y7, writing workshops with Y7 and 8, Katya will be signing books in the library over lunchtime. You can buy books on the day or order them in advance on the online shop.
Very excited, not only at how organised I am this year (so far!), but at this excellent line up of visits for @DidcotGirls and @StBirinusSchool! @lcpalmerpoet @sophiemckenzie_ @footieheroesbks @BooksandChokers
