We had the pleasure of welcoming author Cat Weatherill to our Academy on Thursday 30 June 2022.

Cat delivered a storytelling session for all Year 7s students in an extended assembly and the workshops all ran smoothly. The students performed wonderfully with their metaphor writing. ​​​​​​​The workshops covered three themes; an introduction to autobiographical storytelling, cinematic writing and abstract writing.

Participation will have a positive impact on students’ confidence with reading and English skills. Special thanks to our staff for making it a great day too.
