Author, Tom Palmer, visits Prep

We were delighted to have the acclaimed author, Tom Palmer visit the Prep on Wednesday 25 May to talk about his writing to all pupils.

Tom is known for his historical fiction and football books. His most recent book Arctic Star is about three young naval recruits braving the Arctic Convoys during the Second World War. It follows his award-winning book After the War – from Auschwitz to Ambleside about the three hundred children who survived the concentration camps and came to the Lake District over 75 years ago, known as the Windermere Children. Bestselling sports series by Tom include Football Academy, Foul Play, Secret FC, Roy of the Rovers and Rugby Academy. 

After the talk, students had the opportunity to meet the author and he signed books for them.
