Interactive Storytelling

Our Nursery, Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 children were very excited to welcome back Kirsty from Rhubarb Theatre Company.

Each class enjoyed an individual story-telling session linked to their topic work or literacy lessons.

Nursery has been learning all about wintertime so the Snow Bear was a perfect choice and children enjoyed activities including drawing their footprints in the ‘snow’ and listened intently to the parts of the story.

The tale of Handa’s Surprise tied beautifully to Reception’s work on food and there was much laughter as they pretended to be the different animals included in the story.

The much-loved classic, The Tiger Who Came to Tea, was chosen by Year 1 while Julia Donaldson’s Charlie Cook’s Favourite Book was picked by Year 2. Both books were brought to life – launching story writing lessons over the next few weeks.
