What they said!

Claire Page - Gonville Primary School Croyden

The children really enjoyed the day and it was great to involve all children in school. The writing workshops were excellent and the children liked beginning with a character from one of the books

Carol Wood - Southborough School Maidstone

Ian was a total pleasure to listen to when working with my year 5 class. The suspense produced by some of my writers had me on the edge of my seat! The phenomenal vocabulary and inference produced by all the children showed just how inspired they were.
