LAUREN PEARSON

Welcome back to LAUREN PEARSON, the popular author of the ‘Crabtree School’ series.

Lauren came in on Tuesday 28^th June to present creative writing workshops to our Year 4 children. Lauren shared her writing tips with the children especially how to create a character in a story. Lauren spends a long time asking questions to build up a clear picture before she begins to write. The children then got a chance to make-up and draw their own character. As an extra special treat Lauren read an excerpt from the next book in the ‘Crabtree Series’.

It was a fantastic and inspiring morning for children and teachers.

Thank you Lauren!

What A Treat! 

 

 

We had a visit from Lauren Pearson, author of the

amazing 'Crabtree School' book series, during our

Book Fair week on Tuesday 10th November.

Years 2,3 and 4 gathered with great excitement in the hall.

 

Lauren dazzled us with readings from her 'Crabtree School'

series which follows the adventures of five seven and eight-year-olds

at the best primary school in all of Great Britain. They are a perfect

blend of real family, friends and school life that the children adore.

 

Lauren shared with the children her inspiration for her stories - her very own children, Ava and Johnny.

 

 

The children heard about how important characters are in story-telling and together they worked with Lauren to create their own and then some children even got to act them out while our very own, Andrea Ryan, drew the characters. 

 

They got a chance to ask her questions and then meet her afterwards during the book signing.

 

The children had great fun!
