On Monday, three of our year 7 English classes were visited by the author Phil Perry.
This term year 7 have been completing a scheme of work on war fiction in their English lessons and Mr Perry delivered workshops to the students on his books ‘The Battle of Baxter Bakery’ and ‘The Dream Caster’ exploring the concept of war in these stories.
Students debated the ethics of war and enjoyed a discussion with Mr Perry on how he approached the challenging topic of war in his novels.
