Artwork from the Cambrian Learning Trust primaries is on display this weekend at the Wantage Children's Books Festival in the Beacon. The colourful and creative entries were inspired by 'Is Dot in the House?' (@camillareid.books @carly_gledhill) and 'Amazing' (@mrsteveantony) and were part of the Trust's 'Big Book Share', celebrating the National Year of Reading. There is still time to pop along to the festival or have a look at these fabulous pieces in person. Thameside Primary School St John's CE Academy St James CE Primary School, Hanney
