Book now for 2010.

Below is a list of the workshop activities to choose from during a school author visit. This information is also contained in the downloadable School Visits and Workshops 2010 pdf.

Click on eack link to see a description of the content of the activity which is designed to give you a broad overview of what to expect. Resources and handouts required for each activity are listed with links to enable them to be easily downloaded.

Each section contains the time required and group size for each activity. This is based on past experience and will ensure students get the maximum benefit from their contact with Cameron.  All activities are stand-alone and include an introduction and question time. Cameron can also tailor workshops specifically for your school to tie in with the education units your class is currently studying.  Less structured ‘meet the author’ question and answer sessions can also be organised.
