A visit from Ben Lyttleton
On Wednesday, 25 June, Years 3, 4 and 5 enjoyed a visit from bestselling football author and journalist Ben Lyttleton!
Ben came in to talk to the boys about his new book ‘Score Like a Striker’. This was no ordinary author visit, Ben thoroughly entertained everyone with football quizzes, tips, tricks and games. The boys all participated fantastically and had great fun.
The boys also learnt about the importance of resilience and teamwork as shown by many of the boys' favourite football players. Thankfully Ben didn't need to use his referee's whistle too much and no-one received a red card! Ben reported that our football chants and cheers were the loudest he had heard yet during a school visit!
At the end of the visit Ben stayed to chat to the boys who had ordered a copy of his book and to ensure they were all signed.
