Author Visit

On Wednesday 8th February the whole school visited Biggin school along with Elton School to meet Fay Evans, an author who has written a book called ‘Dave The Whale’. She undertook workshops with the EYFS/KS1, lower KS2 and upper KS2 pupils. The children appeared to thoroughly enjoy the telling of the story and taking part in the actions during this.  All of the children had the opportunity to play a character in the story using the puppets, which caused great excitement during the re enactment of this story of friendship. It also provided a wonderful opportunity for the cluster schools to get together and for the children to cultivate new friendships of their own.

During the author Q&A session the children thought of some great questions to ask and extend their knowledge.

A fabulous rhyming story enjoyed by children and adults a like!
