Really excited to welcome multi award winning author Tamsin Winter into our school tomorrow, in collaboration with @kibworthbooks to give our young people a talk on her latest book ‘I Dare You’ @KibMeadAcad #teentalks

Whether it is cheering on our #NCrquiz2025 teams or diving into stories in class, reading is a passion we all share @KibMeadAcad . Good luck from the whole of our school to our 2 teams taking part in the @Literacy_Trust @ALCS_UK tomorrow. Good Luck!

We hosted 2 virtual author talks in our library this week with @jeffreykboakye and @HelenRutterUK as part of our @Reading_Rampage programme . They were brilliant! Our students were completely engaged with both authors and interacted with them very well. @MidlandsCLS @DrPThompson

3 of our students took a different approach to portray Piano at the Station by @HelenRutterUK. They had a fun afternoon making musical themed cakes and a booklet of the process! Fabulous work ! @Reading_Rampage @MidlandsCLS @DrPThompson
