Last week, we had the pleasure of hosting author Donna David at our school. She is the author of books such as “Trains, Trains, Trains,” “Oh no, Bobo,” and “Farmer Larmer.” Donna started the day by talking to all our KS1 children in an assembly. She shared how she fell in love with writing and books and even showed us some of her own work from when she was in Year 1.
Following the assembly, Donna led workshops for nursery, reception, and Year 1 classes. During these sessions, she talked to us about some of the books she has written and read one of her stories to us. Donna also provided a glimpse into the fascinating process she goes through to get her books published. To make it even more exciting, some children took on the roles of editors, publishers, printers, and other important people who help make books. It was an interactive and enriching experience for everyone involved!
A big thank you to Donna for inspiring us with your stories and sharing the magic of writing!
