Book Week and Author Visits

Year 3 Treasure Hunt

M A Bennett

Graham Whitlock and Junior School Librarians

n Wow! Book Week went with a Bang! Another Time, Another Place Book Week whizzed by once again. The boys enjoyed wonderful live author visits from Graham Whitlock, Sam Copeland, Sam Sedgman and M A Bennett and we also welcomed children from Dulwich Wood School. From laughing at emojis to learning about how steam fires pistons, to the Butterfly Effect and the amazing blind skiers down Crystal Palace hill – we were bamboozled and entertained. Year 3 took part in a Treasure Hunt with clues from around the Junior School, Year 4 enjoyed a visit to the Archives and learned about Edward Alleyn’s fabulous shopping list for the feast to celebrate founding the College, and put on his actual 400 year old ring. Year 5 completed workshops with the author about the Crystal Palace – imagining what they would put in today’s Crystal Palace – with a myriad of suggestions and Year 6 librarians enjoyed a fun Brown Bag lunch with Graham Whitlock, the author who answered all their questions and queries about his writing, and how his book was published.
