Halloween at Turriff Academy.

 

 

The last readings of the day took place at Turriff Academy. Pupils were invited to take part in an informal 'drop in' Halloween session. Thank you to everyone who came along with their fantastic costumes and contributions. I didn't expect so many people to turn up in their lunch hour - very impressive!                                                                                                                                   We listened to a host of stories, jokes and poems. I read a collection of dark and spooky poems from the pen of Jack Prelutsky: 'The Dance of the Thirteen Skeletons'; 'The Witch'; and the 'Bogey Man'. We were also  treated to a fantastic reading of the 'Song of the Witches' from Shakespeare's MacBeth. A fun filled session with some fabulous young people!
