Tom is an author from Leeds and his books often centre around war, family bonds and deal with themes of love and loss. Football is a key theme for many of his books. In secondary our students took part in workshops, assemblies and learning about the Author and his books. In the assembly the student had an opportunity to ask Tom questions about his life and books. In the run up to Tom's visit students researched Tom and each class read one of his books. Well done secondary! ### Secondary Experience: Tom Palmer [![](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/images/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/Tom%20P.png)](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/images/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/Tom%20P.png) [![](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_0964.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/images/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_0964.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_0962.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/images/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_0962.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_0961.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/images/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_0961.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_0959.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/images/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_0959.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_0954.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/images/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_0954.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_0952.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/images/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_0952.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_3684.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/images/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_3684.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_3689.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/images/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_3689.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_3685.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/images/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_3685.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_3683.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/images/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_3683.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_3686.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/images/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_3686.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_3688.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/images/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_3688.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_3687.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/images/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_3687.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_3696.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/images/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_3696.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_3710.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/images/gallery/secondary-experience-tom-palmer/IMG_3710.jpg) [ Going Green](https://www.torview.org/blog/2024-09-25-13-04-00-going-green) [3ST: Drama ](https://www.torview.org/blog/2024-10-03-09-21-00-3st-drama) ![Tor View School](https://files.schudio.com/tor-view-school/images/logo/TV_SVT_Logo_website_Footer_Logos.png) **Tor View School** Clod Lane Haslingden Lancashire BB4 6LR Tel: 01706 214640 ### Useful Links - [Educational Excellence](https://torview.org/educational-excellence/welcome) - [The Sea View Trust](http://theseaviewtrust.co.uk/welcome) - [Valley College](https://www.valleycollege.co.uk/) - [Embrace TSH](https://embracetsh.co.uk/) **The Sea View Trust (Reg in England and Wales)** Trust Central Team The Sea View Trust Ewood Campus, Clod Lane Rossendale, BB4 6LR © Copyright 2020–2026 Tor View School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.torview.org/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
