The staff and pupils loved the session!

Clare creates an environment of awe and wonder from the very start of her session. The children are so keen to find out about the real characters from her stories and Clare shares this information through photographs and short anecdotes. Once the children are fully engaged she then immerses them into her stories, often with the children finishing off her rhymes for her. Clare’s enthusiasm is infectious and her investment in her work (including her doggy shoes, necklace and painted nails) isn’t overlooked by the students.

When discussing our ‘Top 5 recommended books’ the children in my English class asked if we could use ‘Olive’, one of the stories we heard on Tuesday. We like that the book had lots of rhyming pairs and lots of pictures to help us, we think our friends would really enjoy them too. It’s nice to know that even dogs get ‘worried’ too and worries will often go.

Ash Class definitely enjoyed it! They were in stitches with all the dog picture! Clare’s energy when reading the stories was fantastic and kept them engaged.
