On the 26th of May 2016, schools from around the world joined us for a very special show with bestselling author of the Percy Jackson series, Rick Riordan.

During the show, we learnt about the tangled lives of Greek gods and goddesses, battled with a gladiatorial draw-along and experimented with how horrible history can shape our own creative writing. Adding to the fun, there was an exclusive reading from Rick’s latest book, The Trials of Apollo, a ‘Who’s Your Greek God Daddy quiz?’ and a question and answer session with Rick himself!

Highlights of the show include:
• A Pegasus draw-along
• An exclusive first reading from Rick Riordan’s latest book The Trials of Apollo: The Hidden Oracle
• Children’s questions answered by Rick Riordan
• A mythical quests quiz
