Y2 Wimbledon BookFest

On Tuesday 7th October, Year 2 visited author Nadia Shireen, described by The Observer as one of the “best and brightest picture book creators working in Britain today.” During the Grimwood workshop, pupils explored the wonderfully weird forest of Grimwood, met quirky characters, and learned how to create their own funny stories. The session was lively, inspiring, and full of laughter and creativity.
Miss Hall, who accompanied Year 2, said:
“The children were absolutely captivated. It was a joy to see them so immersed in storytelling and bursting with ideas. Experiences like this really help foster a lifelong love of reading.”
We’re delighted our pupils could take part in such a memorable event, and we look forward to seeing how their imaginations continue to flourish in the classroom.
