The author Keith Gray visited the school on Monday 23rd of February to speak to S3 pupils. He proved very popular, entertaining us with tales on how he became an author, talking about his books and methods of working and leaving us with an intriguing question as to which of his stories were actually true!
Beforehand, Keith came down to the Library to launch our World Book Day reading tree. The idea behind the tree is for pupils and staff to add a leaf with the author and title of a book they have really enjoyed. Keith’s leaf contained details of a book that had ignited his love of reading – The Machine Gunners by Robert Westall.
By World Book Day (5th of March) we hope the tree will be full of leaves
