First Skype Visit Oakridge Intl School India

FIRST SKYPE AUTHOR SCHOOL VISIT - OAKRIDGE INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL: NEWTON CAMPUS - INDIA
Children of Oakridge International School, Hyderabad, India
    
This is exciting news. I've got the first SKYPE Author School Visit arranged for Thursday 28th March 2013.
I'll be talking to the children of Oakridge International School, Hyderabad, India, and showing them some slides with the characters and scenes from my Kernowland in Erthwurld series.
I'll also be telling them about the work of an author and answering questions.
It has to be at 8.00 a.m. here because of the time difference. It will be 1.30 p.m. at their school in India.
There have been a lot of schools asking for visits but I'm finding it hard to get to all the schools as well as writing the new Thirteen Things series of books. SKYPE visits seem to be a good solution, especially for international schools outside the UK.
These video-link SKYPE visits can be for schools in the UK or anywhere else in the world. I have already physically visited over 1,000 schools in the UK but, using this technology, many more schools can have an author visit.
The full address of the school is: Oakridge International School: Newton Campus, Khajaguda, Nanakramguda Road, Cyberabad, Hyderabad - 500008, Andhra Pradesh, INDIA.
School website: www.oakridge.in/newton.

Elm Green Prep Mutant Creatures 07

Visit to Elm Green Prep - Essex - CM3 4SU - Mutant Creatures!
Letter and Artwork from Hussain
    
One of the 'themes' of the Kernowland in Erthwurld stories is mutant creatures. Lots of children like to draw their own mutant creatures and send them to me for putting on the Blog. Hussain's main creature seems to have 'wings' similar to fish such as skate or ray. It also appears to have webbed feet. I wonder WHERE it lives? Hussain has also drawn some other pictures of mutants and some 'things' or 'objects' from the Kernowland stories. He has also written me a lovely letter. Thanks Hussain.

Letter and Artwork from Fergus
    
One of the 'themes' of the Kernowland in Erthwurld stories is mutant creatures. Lots of children like to draw their own mutant creatures and send them to me for putting on the Blog. Fergus's main creature has big eyes and a big nose. The creature is holding something which is very bright orange! I wonder what it is? Fergus has also drawn some other pictures of mutants, some of which have got more than one head!. He has also written me a lovely letter. Thanks Fergus.

Elm Green Prep Mutant Creatures 05

Letter and Artwork from Nicole in Class 3H
    
One of the 'themes' of the Kernowland in Erthwurld stories is mutant creatures. Lots of children like to draw their own mutant creatures and send them to me for putting on the Blog. Nicole's creatures are sand-coloured so perhaps they live on the beach? Have they got four eyes? They seem to be feeling happy as they're smiling. I like their curly antennas, which some people call 'feelers'. So they feel happy and they can feel things with their feelers. That's confusing unless you know that 'to feel' has two meanings! Nicole has also drawn some other pictures of mutants and written me a lovely letter. Thanks Nicole.

Letter and Artwork from Charlie in Class 3H
    
One of the 'themes' of the Kernowland in Erthwurld stories is mutant creatures. Lots of children like to draw their own mutant creatures and send them to me for putting on the Blog. Charlie's creature has red spikes all over it! Is that a great big red mouth at the front or a great big red eye? I wonder which way it moves, forwards or sideways like a crab? Charlie has also drawn some other pictures of mutants and written me a lovely letter. Thanks Charlie.

Letter and Artwork from Holly
    
One of the 'themes' of the Kernowland in Erthwurld stories is mutant creatures. Lots of children like to draw their own mutant creatures and send them to me for putting on the Blog. Holly's creature has great big wings, a very long tail, and looks as if it might be breathing fire! I like the way the Holly has coloured the creature in different shades of green. She has also drawn some other pictures of 'things' or 'objects' from the Kernowland books and written me a lovely letter. Thanks Holly.
