Book Week Events – Kate and Jol Temple

We were very excited to welcome authors Kate and Jol Temple to our Junior School.

The dynamic duo kept us all entertained with insights into their ideas and character development. Jol guided the students to create their own mega rich guinea pig and the girls brainstormed ways to use a giant pair of underpants to foil the evil toad villains in the Frog Squad.
