This fantastic annual event is a celebration of the power of sharing stories. Stories teach us about the world: they allow us to step into someone else’s shoes and feel empathy, they help us to relax and escape and they can help develop essential literacy skills.  Today, Year 5 took part in a workshop with Steven Camden, a fantastic author, who shared some of his ideas for creating stories.  He was brilliant!  Steven was so inspirational for the children but also for myself and Mr Foley!   "I was so hooked,  that I didn't get chance to write" said Isla!  "I've created two new characters already," reported Dylan!  Well done everyone!  I'm looking forward to your storytelling!
