Priory’s Head of English, Mrs Gidden, has been really impressed with many of our multi-talented pupils and wanted to highlight their love of reading while excelling at other pursuits.

This week we interviewed Year 8 pupil, Kelsie.

Kelsie loves animals, dancing and English - and she is one of Mrs Gidden's Cool Readers.

Kelsie's favourite book is A Place Called Perfect by Helena Duggan.

"It's about a girl who does not know which world she is really in. They all have rose-gold glasses which hide them from another world and nothing is as it seems.

"One chapter is in real life and the other is in the other world so you have to try and work out which is real.

"I like mystery books the best."

Kelsie's favourite subject at school is English and she likes writing but her ambition is to work with animals.

"I have a dog and I love animals so I hope, in the future I can work with them."

She is also a keen dancer.  

"I go to D&T Dance, two hours on Thursday and two hours on Saturday and we do lyrical and contemporary dance. We take exams and enter shows."
