Will Mabbitt Q The Year 3 and 4 boys were thrilled to have a visit from Will Mabbitt , author of The Unlikely Adventures of Mabel Jones . Will inspired, terrified and tested our powers of observation during his presentation, with much laughter and fun. It was a wonderful visit with lots of boys enthused to read this hilarious and well-written trilogy of books. DARKMOUTH , COGHEART AND THE UNLIKELY ADVENTURES OF MABEL JONES

Shane Hegarty Q We were delighted to welcome Shane Hegarty , author of the DARKMOUTH series of books, to speak to all of Year 5 and 6 in the summer term. Shane flew over from Dublin to speak about the fourth book - HERO RISING - ahead of publication, and wowed us with tales of dragons, magic and why he became a writer. Hot on the heels of Percy Jackson and Harry Potter, the DARKMOUTH series is already in film production due for release in 2019. The boys loved meeting this author and many bought the whole set of books for a summer’s worth of reading.
