  Mon 16 Jan 2017

  On Monday 16th January, Years 4, 5 and 6 took part in a BBC live lesson to launch the BBC Radio 2's 500 words short story competition. It was hosted by Naga Munchetty and Benny Harwood. The special guest authors were Malorie Blackman and Frank Cottrell-Boyce. It was full of fantastic ideas and resources and every child thoroughly enjoyed the session and were left buzzing with wonderful ideas for their own 500 word story.
