What an amazing day!!! The children LOVED dressing up as what they want to be when they grow up. Fantastic effort!

We also enjoyed the Latham High musicians who were super talented; an amazing artist and some very helpful PCSO ladies! The children have learnt so much about different roles…

Year 5 and Year 6 loved a visit from Thomas Johannessen's dad, Les, who showed his amazing artwork. Members of staff asked to purchase some of his work - amazing!  The children were blown away and loved their session. Delph Side can't wait to get Les back in soon!

Lathom High paid us a special musical visit to inspire us into musical careers! Year 7 to Year 11 children performed some fantastic pieces for us, before we asked questions about their musical talent. A great start to Day 5.

We had a great morning listening to two fantastic authors share their stories! I think some year 5 children are torn as to whether they want to be a prison officer or an author... both??

Year Six loved Ewan's mum popping in for a chat about her career as an author, and asked some inspiring and deep questions about her writing process! Mr Morris and Mrs Gwyther immediately purchased copies of 'Ropes' through Amazon!
