Fairlop students meet Eoin Colfer & Simon Mayo

Over the last few weeks, some of our students have been lucky enough to visit Ilford County High School and meet two authors - Eoin Colfer and Simon Mayo.

Eoin Colfer has written many blockbusters, including the Artemis Fowl series.  He gave a really interesting talk and students from many Redbridge schools asked lots of questions about him and his work.




They also met Simon Mayo, who chatted about writing his new book Itch.  He is one of Britain's best-loved and well-known radio presenters, working on BBC radio since 1981.  ITCH is his first novel.  Listen to his podcast below:
