‘Paul’s visit was fun and engaging. All the children in foundation were actively joining in with the actions and sharing ideas. We composed our own ‘Explorer’ poem and performed in front of our families at the end of Paul’s fun, inspiring and wonderful day. Thank you so much Paul!’

‘What a great day! My lively Y2 class were completely hooked, producing some great ideas and WANTING to perform their own imaginative poems! Thank you, Paul.’

‘A fabulous day was had by all of our Y1 & Y2 pupils! Children produced lots of amazing poetry that they really enjoyed performing to the rest of the class. Even the less confident pupils were keen to share their poems with the rest of the class! Amazing!’

‘I’ve had the good fortune to get to know Paul both through his visits to our school and his participation in a children’s reading club I’m involved with. He always brings an energy and excitement to writing and storytelling that never fails to foster a love of both in everyone present, children and adults alike. It’s always a great experience for everyone!’

 

‘The children absolutely LOVED Paul’s visit to St George’s! Paul’s whole school assembly was full of fun and much laughter. As well as thoroughly enjoying listening to Paul’s fantastic poetry, at the end of the day the children had all written their own amazing poems! Thank you Paul – a brilliant day!’

‘All the children at Grappenhall Heys were totally inspired by Paul. He was full of energy, humour and enthusiasm and certainly raised the profile of poetry at our school. We can’t wait to invite him back again!’
