On Monday 3rd April Liz Million (author and illustrator) came to visit Stephenson Way Academy & Nursery School. Her entertaining approach captured the interest of all children from nursery to year 6. The response from the children was fantastic. Her talks were fun and motivating with lots of audience participation. One year 5 girl commented, “This is the best owl I have ever drawn and she was so easy to follow because of her funny personality.”
Liz did a range of talks from fun storytelling and drawing colourful characters to sketches and character development. The children were in awe at her ability to draw so quickly and accurately. She covered a range of themes based around the school’s curriculum. The children thoroughly enjoyed working alongside a ‘real life’ illustrator and using their imagination to create wonderful art work. Stephenson Way Academy would like to say a huge thank you for such an inspiring visit.
