where schools from all around the country produce art based upon the same painting from the
Gallery's Collection: The Battle of San Romano.
The whole school were fortunate to receive a visit from the storyteller, Kevin Graal. Kevin met with all year groups and helped them developed their own story wheels. It was a fantastic day and inspired many budding authors throughout the school.
