1A5 students meet author Sarah Webb
On Wednesday 2nd October, students from 1A5, accompanied by their English teacher Mr Rolston, visited the new Wexford Public Library to meet Irish author, Sarah Webb. This was a great opportunity for students to meet a published author and the students really enjoyed their time with the creator of the 'Ask Amy Green' series. Sarah spoke to the students about her background and upbringing, she also spoke about the kind of books she read as a child and teenager. She spoke about how determined she was in becoming a published writer, even though her novels were rejected many times by publishing companies, this didn't put her off and her persistence paid off. Sarah has close to 30 novels for children, teenagers and adults now published and her books have been translated into many languages. Sarah also read from her newest book in the 'Ask Amy Green' series. She then gave students a chance to become guest editors on her new book and asked them to choose the title for her next book. The talk concluded with a very engaging Q&A session. Many thanks to Sarah and the staff of the Public Library for inviting the students.
