Catherine MacPhail visit







On Thursday 20th March, the author Catherine MacPhail came to Doon Academy. Pupils from Cumnock and Auchinleck academies came to join us here and listen to her very entertaining talk.



She chatted about some of her books and where she had got the original ideas from. I am sure that lots of pupils will be borrowing her books from the Library next week. Towards the ned of her talk she decribed a ghost story set is a school. She asked the pupils to imagine lots of creepy things that might happen in a dark school library in the evening once people had gone home. Loads of people came up with creepy suggestions, fortunately none of them featured homicidal librarians!



After the talk she was happy to chat to pupils and sign autographs.
