We're deeply saddened by the passing of Alex Wheatle, a legendary novelist and a phenomenal leader in Black British literature. His powerful storytelling and dedication to uplifting Black voices earned him an MBE and numerous other awards.
His impact on literature and young readers will never be forgotten.
Our thoughts are with his family at this very sad time.
Peace and love.
The Black British Book Festival Team

Working at GHS on our Safiyyah's War (by Hiba Noor Khan) project. Today we learned about clothing and fasting. Adno shared her experiences of both, explaining so many things! We dressed in niqab using leso and kikoi from Kenya

I visited Grangemouth public library on Thursday to visit our robots! They have been much talked about and admired!! Such great work, guys!! @CarrongrangeSch
We save elephants because they are a keystone species, shaping their environment and supporting ecosystem health, which benefits flora and fauna. We save elephants because they are sentient, intelligent, social, self-aware deeply and connected to their families. But most of all, we save elephants because they deserve a future free from harm, just as they always have.
Protecting elephants means protecting the wild. Join us in this mission: https://t.co/lfICYfsuYO
