FOLLOWING on from the success of the Able Writers Day that was hosted at Westville House School in Ilkley last year, the school ran a Character Cartoon and Animation Day for a number of pupils in years three and four and also invited other local schools to send pupils to join in.
Children from Ben Rhydding Primary School were among those who attended the event.
The day was led by Andrew Thompson, who is a world-renowned character animator, having worked on the Harry Potter film Order of the Phoenix and Narnia: Prince Caspian.
He also appears on the Harry Potter Wall of Fame at the Warner Brothers Exhibition.
The children had a brilliant day creating characters along with their very own comic strip.
It was a great opportunity for children to work with a current illustrator and to use their imaginations to develop this skill in their literacy programmes.
