Storytelling for schools

"Stories and storytelling" gives children the chance to enjoy stories and storytelling specifically designed to support the National Curriculum at Entry Level and KS1 and KS2.

As an author of children's books, professional storyteller and mother of two, I offer a tailored programme for primary school children. My sessions are designed to appeal to different learning styles whilst also enriching the curriculum. A typical day's programme starts with Assembly at which I talk generally about stories, storytelling and writing stories. I will also read from my book "Tales from My Treasure Chest".

This is followed by visits to up to six year groups within your school. With the older year groups I run a storytelling workshop supported by props and specifically adapted to support the particular curriculum aims being taught within those year groups at that time. Sessions work best when held in the classroom.

For the younger children, my session includes telling stories whilst also encouraging their participation again using props and linked to your current curriculum objectives. At the end of the day I am happy to meet children and their parents on an individual basis to answer any questions and sign copies of my book.

My daily fee is £150 plus travelling expenses. I am based in Hertfordshire and am happy to visit schools in London and surrounding areas.
