It’s a great gift to help children develop into life-long readers. With the use of words and images as a key of success, stories are a powerful tool to develop children’s listening skills, broaden their imagination, and encouraging them to express themselves in different ways.

In 2016, the Blooming Club proudly present our keynote speaker, Neil Griffiths, an experts of storytelling and a writer of children books, at our Storytelling Workshop – ‘Caught or Taught?’ on 8th October 2016 (Sat).

Suitable for all practitioners from Foundation to Key Stage Two, this half-day session will address:

This would be a great chance to discover the power and gift of storytelling, building familiarity and enhancing fluency in both teller and listener.

We are looking forward to meeting you at the Storytelling Wortshop 2016!
