Explore Learning are delighted to offer this free workshop centred around this year's Summer Reading Challenge theme, Story Garden.
This story-writing workshop has been designed by Explore Learning’s expert curriculum developers. Children will undertake a journey into an enchanted world called ‘The Hidden Glade’ with a young book bee who hasn’t got a story yet. This workshop is suitable for all 5-11 year olds whether writing comes easily or not. Tutors will coach children to use their imagination, overcome challenges and get excited about story-telling.
Please register in advance by selecting your chosen date, above, or on Explore Learning's Eventbrite page.
Saturdays 10am-12pm
Wednesdays 12pm-2pm
