Year 2 had a fantastic time meeting the talented author, Sufiya Ahmed, today. The author of The Best Eid Ever visited our school and had the opportunity to meet both Year 1 and Year 2. Sufiya read her book to the children, sparking excitement as they shared stories about the festivals they celebrate at home.
Year 2 impressed Sufiya with their thoughtful questions, helping us gain a deeper understanding of what it takes to be an inspiring writer!
Following the book reading, Sufiya and Tash from Bloomsbury Publishing showed the children how to create beautiful henna patterns. While the children got busy with their artwork, Sufiya kindly signed a copy of her brand new book for each child, writing their names inside. These special books were then sent home, giving the children a lovely memento to treasure.
What a wonderful way to spend a Friday morning! A huge thank you to Sufiya Ahmed and Bloomsbury Publishing for making this such a memorable experience. We hope to welcome you back soon!
