Thanks to the General Election, our school became a polling station and to keep us amused, the school brought in an author to teach us (the teachers) the art of storytelling!
We amazed ourselves with our previously hidden abilities to make stories from objects and pictures. We developed themes and added funny twists. We laughed maybe a bit more than we should have done. We sat at the feet of a great storyteller (Adam Guillain) and came away inspired to be that storyteller in our classrooms in future.
We also learnt about an exciting new project called the story museum; a fantastic collection of traditional and modern stories for all ages.
