  • Meet the Author Andy Seed

    Published 06/03/26

    We were delighted to welcome Andy Seed to Sandford St Martin’s for a brilliant day celebrating reading, writing and creativity. Andy worked with every class across the school, sharing stories, humour and plenty of inspiration along the way.

    The children were completely captivated by his energetic style and engaging workshops, which sparked lots of great ideas for their own writing.

    The day began with a lively whole-school assembly where Andy introduced his books and talked about how he comes up with his ideas. His enthusiasm for reading was infectious and the children loved hearing about the inspiration behind his work. Throughout the day, Andy visited each class and encouraged pupils to think like real authors.

    After school, Andy kindly stayed for a book signing event, which was very popular with families. We were thrilled to see so many books sold, with funds raised going straight back into our school book budget to help buy more great books for the children.

    A big thank you to Pop-Up Bookshop for helping to organise such a memorable and inspiring visit.
