Author Visit

Year 8 have been studying the award-winning novel ‘Boy87’ over the last term and had the wonderful opportunity yesterday to experience a lecture by the author of the book: Ele Fountain.

Ele shared her experiences of being an author, as well as her inspirations for the story of two young refugee boys whose lives are turned upside down when war hits their home country. Year 8 asked an array of insightful questions and impressed Ele with their outstanding knowledge of her work, as well as their curiosity about her writing choices and processes.

Thanks to Ele for her visit!
