Wilnecote Warbler April 2019
YOUR LIBRARY Wilnecote Warbler April 2019 LIBRARY OPEN DAY On Saturday 23rd March volunteers of Wilnecote Community Managed Library welcomed members of the community to their first ‘Open Day’ event. Refreshments were served as the community chatted to volunteers and found out about hosted groups that currently take place at the Library or are planned for the future. Children who came along had lots of fun at the children’s craft table and there was a great community atmosphere throughout the event. WORLD AUTISM AWARENESS WEEK To mark World Autism Awareness Week volunteers of Wilnecote Library held a coffee afternoon on Wednesday 3rd April. Members of the community were invited to come along & chat to the Autism Outreach specialist team, who are based at The Wilnecote School. To promote awareness & celebrate differences the Library also had a dedicated display entitled ‘Autism & Aspergers - How it feels in my head’ . A selection of books loaned to the Library by Autism Outreach were also displayed for students & the community to browse. We are also very proud to let you know that 3 students in year 11, who have been working on making sensory items in Graphics as part of their GCSE coursework, have recently completed the new Autism Advocate training programme. This has been an intensive 6 week course which has given the students a deeper understanding of the Autism spectrum and how it affects people they will meet in life as well as in school. They will be wearing the Autism Advocate pins on their blazers to show that they are approachable and understanding to all students in school who may be struggling with sensory difficulties as well as an ASD. The course has been such a success that it is now due to be rolled out through the rest of the school. Students across all year groups, who are interested in learning more about Autism and sensory difficulties, were invited to attend the Library during World Autism Awareness Week to find out more. Miss Jones, Communication Support Worker - Autism Outreach Team said “I was overwhelmed by the amount of interest from students wishing to take part in the course.” 6
Wilnecote Warbler April 2019 BOOK REVIEW STUDENT BOOK REVIEW Book Review by: Tilli-Beau Tyson Title: The witches Author: Roald Dahl I like this book because it is a very interesting, sunny book which is full of excitement. My favourite part is when Bruno (in mouse form) is shown to his parents Mr and Mrs Jenkins. When Mrs Jenkins screamed it was so well described that I could picture this all happening in my head. This book was definitely really easy to read which made it way funnier. I would definitely recommend this to many of my friends. Anyone could read this book but for people that struggle then they can get help from family. In conclusion I like the book and would definitely reach for it again. However, I would love to see a sequel maybe explaining how and why the witches became so evil. STAFF BOOK REVIEW Book Review by: Mr Faulds Title: The Host Author: Stephanie Mayer The Earth has been defeated by aliens who live inside the heads of the human population. An alien called the traveller comes to Earth and is implanted into a resistance fighter, weirdly the alien allows the person inside to live so she can go back to the resistance….or is she just a very clever spy alien intent on rooting out and killing the last humans?? A gripping story vividly describing the conflict between the host and guest minds, and everyone’s mistrust of the traveller and her host. 7
