Learning with Confidence Together
Gavin Thomson, a local author, visited Stanley on Friday 25th January and stayed all day to talk to Reception to Year 6 about his books and answer their questions.
He is the author of Twinning Tales - a picture book series that includes Mumbo & Jumbo, Hip & Hop and Hoity & Toity.
Gavin also signed a number of his books for children.
It was a very good day … especially for fans of Twinning Tales.
Dave, who takes football sessions and runs the Samba Soccer Club at Stanley, asked children and parents to donate any out-grown football boots or trainers for children in Jamaica. Dave then organised getting the highly sought after boots to Jamaica.
The pictures below show children at the Lysti School in Jamaica showing off their new boots and trainers. They are all very keen football fans and players and really appreciate your donations.
So a big thank you from the Jamaican school, its footballers and Dave to everyone who kindly donated their boots.
