National Storytelling Week
To celebrate Storytelling week, the teachers took the opportunity to swap classes to read a story. We all had so much fun.
Mrs Cunningham loved reading Green Eggs and Ham to Mr Rooney and Miss Fitzsimmons class 😌
What is National Storytelling Week?
Throughout all of our history and across every culture, people have told each other stories for a variety of reasons – to inspire others, to share important morals and lessons or simply to pass the time. National Storytelling Week is a yearly event run by the Society for Storytelling that celebrates the tradition of storytelling and aims to inspire a whole new generation of storytellers.
Finding the time to read with children can often be difficult, but National Storytelling Week provides a wonderful opportunity for you to highlight the importance of reading and storytelling. No matter whether they’re keen readers or they’re a bit more hesitant to get involved, there’s no better time to get everyone together and appreciate the magic of a great story.
