Ladies and Gentlemen, We would like to introduce to you Spider-Pig!
Spider-Pig is the library mascot in Forrester High School in Edinburgh. Librarian Julie Sutherland mentioned he was currently in the guise of ‘Spider-Who’ “dressed as The Doctor – he’s wearing a bow tie, is holding
a sonic screwdriver and is reading a manual on his greatest enemies”. We just had to ask for a photo to share with
you.
She also told us “Spider-Who does
change depending on displays or complete whimsy on my part. He’s been a zombie
and has had some very nasty accidents for Halloween; he’s been Harry Potter,
Captain Underpants, a doctor (complete with surgical mask) and a baby (with a
nappy on). He has sunbathed on a deckchair for summer reading promos too. Our
careers advisor made trotter prints and they turn up overnight across the
library furniture / ceiling for pupils to discover what he gets up to in the
evenings… It gets a lot of chat going.”
A lot of other teachers have mentioned how Doctor Who has
been used in their schools. We’ve been
told of lessons, displays and one school even has a full size Dalek in their
library! We have added Spider-Who to our
‘Doctor Who in Schools’ Photo album, which you will find linked in our right
navigation menu. If you have any photos
from your school we can share please send them in.
