Pictured with the Chris Riddell, Eilidh Child, Debbie Gliori and Piet Grobler
On Thursday all of P7 and 17 pupils from P5 went to Glasgow in a coach to watch Authors Live the Illustration Slam. We watched Chris Riddell, Debi Gliori and Piet Grobler draw some pictures in 40 minutes. Debi Gliori used chalk to make up a new sport called Downhill Volcano Skiing; Chris Riddell used a black brush pen to make up a scene which he called Dandelion and Burdock and Piet Grobler used oil pastels to make up a character called Winifred the opera singer.
There was also a surprise visit from Olympic and Commonwealth medallist Eilidh Child.
