Pleasure and privilege to welcome @Matt Dickinson to @fchslondon to deliver an electric session with Yr7-9 students. They learnt about his expeditions to Mount Everest and his travels across 100 countries. An absolutely lovely day! @CILIPSLG@sljournal
Barnet librarians gathered to meet Nathaniel Lessore and watch Barnet schools present their chosen @CarnegieMedals books today. Thank you to @BarnetLibraries for arranging this enjoyable annual event enjoyed by all students and school librarians. @CILIPSLG@Sch_Librarians
We have a thought on this: when 1 of every 3 kids in our schools is from a minority ethnic background, may be publishing could try creating books that speak to them and reflect their reality?
Our Chair of Judges, Ros Harding, and one of our incredible #Carnegies2025 shortlisted authors @NateLessore were on @BBCr4today chatting about the Writing shortlist, perspectives on masculinity, and more.

As a proud Angeleno, the fires that have devastated our county have been heart-breaking. I am so fortunate that while my own home in the Palisades was at risk and had some damage from the fires, I am safe. So many others cannot say the same, and my heart goes out to all of those who have been affected and are rebuilding their lives from ash.
I wrote this poem, “Smoldering Dawn”, to process my own fears and prayers for us as we come together as a community to heal from this trauma. While we mourn what we have lost, we also give thanks to the first responders, firefighters and civilians who have fought so tirelessly to combat these fires and ensure the safety of so many.
To honor them, I’m releasing this poem as a fundraiser for the California Fire Foundation, which is offering support and aid to firefighters families, as well as those who have been impacted by the fires. 💛 Give what you can, help who you can, stay safe, and this too we shall conquer.
