Storyteller Programme

Are you aged between 7 & 14 years old?

Children will complete a free ten week programme introducing them to the art of storytelling. Storytelling is a performance based art in which students select a story, and through writing and movement activities, learn how to bring it to life and bring it from the page to the stage. They will receive a folder to keep their work safe and will learn among other things, visualization techniques, gestures, intonation, body language and seizing the stage with style.

This programme increases self-esteem, confidence and promotes reading for fun. After students have completed the programme, they will share their stories with family and friends in a special Storytelling Festival Performance in the Events Centre.

Parents and caregivers will be kept informed of the students’ progress over the course of the ten weeks.

Beginning Saturday 30th July for 10 weeks, 2pm-4pm

Please contact Carterton Library for more information.
