Year 10 Students meet Novelist

On Wednesday 21st March, 30 Year 10 students traveled to Clapham Library for a presentation by the award-winning author, Angie Thomas.

Inspired by the Black Lives Matter campaign, Angie's powerful debut The Hate U Give, is proving one of the most important YA novels of 2018. Already a New York Times bestseller, the book is currently being made into a film and has been shortlisted for both the Waterstone's Book Prize and the Carnegie Medal.

Following Angie's presentation, children were invited to take part in a lively Q&A session and a hugely popular book signing. 

Copies of The Hate U Give are available to loan from the school library.
