The English Department will be hosting our annual Year 8 visit from the award-winning Scottish author Stuart Reid on Friday 27th March 2026.
Stuart’s first book won the Silver Medal at the Forward National Literature Awards, and his books are written to inspire children to read for pleasure. Stuart’s last book ‘Grandpa Jock and the Incredible Iron-Bru-Man Incident’ was launched at the Edinburgh Festival, whilst his new title, Soggy Saturday Sandwich was officially launched at the Nairn Book Festival.
Pupils can purchase books on the day, all signed by the author, with a personal dedication to each child. Book prices are £7 each, two for £12, or a school special offer of four books for £20.
