On Tuesday 2nd of April, St Cenydd was visited by author Cathy Farr. During this visit students from the year seven and eight set ones, spent the first four lessons of the day doing creative writing tasks with Cathy.

Cathy spent some time at the beginning of the workshop warming up our imaginations with simple descriptive writing exercises. After this, Cathy gave us tasks that highlighted errors common in young writers. To finish, Cathy gave us the freedom of creating our own piece, only giving us the starting sentence.

I am sure that I speak for everyone who attended the workshop, when I say that we thoroughly enjoyed the new experience. - Year 7 pupil
