World famous author Joanna Trollope drops in

World famous author Joanna Trollope OBE was the latest Les Philosophes guest speaker. Joanna, whose best-sellers include A Rector’s Wife and The Choir, spoke to those lucky enough to be present on the value of a broad education and the importance of passions in life. She also answered some probing questions from Sixth Form members on writing, inspirations and success v failure.

Joanna delivered her talk and answers with wonderful timing, humour and eloquence and conveyed an important message that although exams are important, your life won’t be wholly defined by your results.

It was a refreshing idea and one that hopefully inspired the audience to go and try something new!
