On a wet and windy day, it has been a delight to see so much colour and cheer around the school, with plenty of yellow, spots, and Pudsey merchandise brightening the halls. A huge thank you to everyone for the fantastic support shown today and throughout the past week.

Thank you @NorfolkCBC for the opportunity to host @tiafisher_ another thoughtful, engaging presentation. Y10s & staff continued discussing your visit and new YA verse novel, Not Going to Plan, with the library loan waiting list growing! @NgateDereham #mirrorswindowsdoors

[Northgate High School @NgateDereham]

Today, students were thrilled to welcome Tia Fisher, acclaimed author of Crossing the Line, back to school for a special visit. Tia came to promote her brand-new book, Not Going to Plan, which delves into themes closely linked to topics currently explored in citizenship lessons.

This is such great news, not least because the prize is for books for 8-12 year olds, a category regularly sidelined by the Carnegie Awards - and yet primary school is the place where life-long readers begin. https://t.co/esYtMjE1lG
