DREAM TEAM AUTHOR EVENT

On Wednesday October 7th, Canadian author Kathy Kacer will be visiting Thornhill Woods P.S. to speak with our Grade 6, 7 and 8 students. Ms. Kacer is part of an author tour promoting a brand new series written for young adults. We are honoured to have been chosen as one of the participating schools.

In addition, our students in Grades 6 through 8 and their parents are invited to a free evening presentation at Brownridge Public School (65 Brownridge Drive, Thornhill) to meet the Dream Team authors of the new Secrets Series. The event will be held on the evening of October 7th, beginning at 7:00 p.m. and ending at 8:30 p.m.

Meet Canadian authors Kelley Armstrong, Vicki Grant, Marthe Jocelyn, Kathy Kacer, Norah McClintock, Teresa Toten and Eric Walters for a night of revealing truths and telling Secrets about their contributions to the series. This will be a unique opportunity to meet some of the best and biggest selling Canadian children's and youth adult writers. At this once in a lifetime occasion you can see them all in one place: listen to them talk, ask questions, get autographs and have the opportunity to purchase their books. 


Hope you can make it!
