School Visit to Kimpton Primary School

It was fantastic to be back in the classroom.  I worked with Y5 and Y6 at Kimpton Primary School, Hertfordshire. 

With Y5 we used my 'Box of Wonders' activity to show how objects can be used to generate story ideas, characters and settings simply by asking the right questions. 

With Y6 we used the 'Consequences' method to make a crazy story about poisoned toast and a bullied flamingo set in an all girls school during Christmas holidays!

I've missed school visits so much during the pandemic. It really does inspire and motivate  children in may aspects of their literacy work and it is the best thing by far about being a Children's Author.

If you're considering an author visit to your school, please do get in touch. I'd really love to hear from you.

In the meantime here are some photos of my visit and a huge THANK YOU to the staff and pupils at Kimpton Primary for making me feel so welcome.
