Absolutely brilliant to have author @FrancesHardinge here this morning talking to Year 8 about her book 'Deeplight' & answer all sorts of questions about being a writer. There was also a chance for students to purchase her book & have it signed #WGS #lovereading @simplybooksNo1

"How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard." This quote was written into the AMAZING cake made in our own Catering Department by Julie C for the farewell of Mrs Burrows, retiring Head of Juniors. Mrs B is a great fan of life lessons from Winnie the Pooh!
