**📚 Exciting Author Visit – Wednesday, 7th October 📚**

We are delighted to announce that author **Sean Perkins** will be visiting school to share his brand-new book, ***Oscar and Ben: The Picnic***, with our EYFS and KS1 children.

We have thoroughly enjoyed Sean's previous visits and the children have loved listening to his wonderful stories. We are therefore very much looking forward to welcoming him back to school for another exciting reading session.

Children will have the opportunity to purchase a copy of ***Oscar and Ben: The Picnic*** before the visit, and Sean has kindly agreed to autograph books on the day, making this a special keepsake for our young readers.

Further information about ordering books will be sent out shortly, so please keep an eye out for details.

We can't wait for another fantastic visit from Sean and to introduce the children to his latest adventure!
