This past week, we were lucky to have three visitors drop by Saints to share their passions, interests, and expertise with the boys!
Author Visit: Lisa McMann
On Tuesday, the author of “The Unwanteds” series came by to discuss her work and tell the boys about her seventh and final book in the series. The boys excitedly listened to her presentation, asked an array of questions, and then got the chance to have her sign their books. Check out Lisa’s books here: http://www.theunwantedsseries.com/
Coding Workshop: Tech Up Kids
Rita, Anushka, and Ross from Tech Up Kids visited on Friday to help a group of 13 boys refine and continue to develop their computer games, which they are building using the platform Scratch. Games were improved, bugs were de-bugged and was fun was had by all!
Human Library: Professional Musician
On Tuesday, Anna Webber, a professional jazz musician from New York City, visited as the most recent installment of our Human Library. Many budding musicians from Saints signed up to talk with Anna and listen to her play her 94-year-old saxophone. Listen to more here.
