The children and staff were very lucky to have a visit from author of books such as ‘My Friend the Enemy’, ‘My Brother’s Secret’, ‘Big Game’, ‘Boy X’, ‘Below Zero’ and ‘She Wolf’; Dan Smith. Dan lives in Newcastle with his wife and two children and has written many books.
During his visit he told the children about his time in a boarding school where he used writing as an escape. The children were then gifted a book from school which Dan signed. A great afternoon was had by all.
