It’s been a flying start to the new academic year. I’ve visited seventeen schools, some multiple times, during the Autumn Term. There’s been a few that I’ve previously visited, as well as sharing stories and writing with pupils in schools that were new to me. I even took part in the celebrations to open a new school library. Visits have taken place right across the North West – from Nelson to Blackpool, Leyland to Leigh, Radcliffe to Oswaldtwistle and many more destinations in between, I’ve had an ace time everywhere I’ve been. Take a look at some of the photos that give a taste of the action from this term.
Thanks to everyone who’s supported me in 2019. It’s been a cracker of a year. I can’t wait to get 2020 started – it’s already looking like a busy one!
