| Mhairi Sturt – Arts Leader and Class Teacher | Yr 3 Wapping | My favourite book as a child was ‘Emil and the Detectives.’ A mother sends ten- year- Emil over 400 miles by train to visit his Grandmother in Berlin. This proves to be as foolhardy as it sounds! A great adventure/mystery. Enjoy! |

| Rebecca Spinks – Spanish Leader and Class Teacher | Yr 4 Caledonia Road | As a child, I used to love to read Winnie the Pooh with my Winnie the Pooh teddy.

| Nyakim Nyuot – Class Teacher | Yr 5 Camden Road | ‘Handa’s surprise’ by Eileen Browne was my favourite childhood book because it allowed me to have a positive self image. When I first read it, I was convinced that the story was about me and my little sister. The illustrations looked just like us! Reflecting on this, it highlights the importance of representation in books. It took me a long time to realise it was not based on me. |

It was a guide to school life as told by a lazy pupil, Nigel Molesworth and I enjoyed its comedic poor spelling and punctuation as well as its amusing illustrations. |
