The student librarians have created an amazing Valentine's display! Can't wait for the students to take books out after half term. It's always one of our popular displays 💝📚

Read this poem by young writer Catherine from Arden Academy & produced at an A.I.M High Day organised by Authors Abroad Black darkness seeping in, crawling underneath my skin. Black darkness, swirling around... Read the full poem here: brian-moses.blogspot.com

Brian Moses Arden Academy Authors Abroad Thank you for sharing Catherine's brilliant poem. It was wonderful to work with the incredible students at Arden Academy.

Emilie Lauren Jones Arden Academy Authors Abroad When I set up the Able Writers (now A.I.M High) scheme in 2002, talented young writers like Catherine were the ones we hoped to reach and inspire. It is so satisfying to see the work from such sessions, all due, I'm sure, to the wonderful inspiration from writers like yourself.

Thought I posted this next tweet a long time ago! Better late than never!!

Our student librarians loved unboxing their books they chose from What on Earth! Books 📚 Thank you so much! What on Earth! Magazine

Proud of our students coming THIRD in the Worcestershire #PoetrySlam Final! They competed against 13 other schools and really did Arden proud 👏 ✨️ Authors Abroad #aapoetryslam

Great news for Arden Academy 🎉🎉

Great to see Arden Academy mentioned in the Authors Abroad newsletter with a special mention for our wonderful Maksym sharing his story with the other schools. canva.com/design/DAGCBxr…

Thanks so much to Seth Burkett for working with our students again. Our Year 7s delved into the literary techniques of biography writing and capped off the day showcasing their football tekkers on the field! Authors Abroad

Last day of term involved crafts, chess & creativity in the library alongside our usual reading

We then descended into madness and the crafts became a limbo chain and the student librarians used our former poetry slam props to hold a library protest.. to each other... because why not? Happy half term!

Heads down writing, hands up contributing – the perfect author visit! Thank you Bryony Pearce for an amazing visit which inspired our students and had students literally begging me to let them in your workshop! Thank you Kenilworth Books🌱🌺🌻🦔 for organising :)
