Grade 1/2’s at Blackburn Lake are having a great start to the week! On Monday morning they all intently watched “The Wizard’s Tale” and responded with great thought and questions. They are then following up the show session with five puppet making workshops. One on Monday, two on Tuesday and two on Wednesday. Here are just a few examples of the great results from these workshops. Thanks so much to the fantastic parent helpers! Monday 2nd, Tuesday 3rd & Wednesday 4th March 2020.

For my final school of the year, I visited Lynbrook Primary School. On Wednesday I ran a puppet show session of “The Wizard’s Tale” and the accompanying ‘behind the scenes’ exploration. The students were so very excited about the show and enjoyed it immensely. On Thursday and Friday I ran four workshops for the six grades, two on Thursday and two on Friday. Here are just a few of the very imaginative puppets created by the students. Thanks to the parent helpers for giving up your time. Wednesday 11th, Thursday 12th & Friday 13th December 2019.

Yesterday Preps at Brighton Primary School enjoyed my performance of “The Wizard’s Tale”, staying involved right until the end of the session. After discovering how the puppet theatre worked, they had a break before returning to make puppets with me as well. I am running three workshops, one yesterday and two today. Here is a sample of the children’s work from the three workshop sessions. Thanks to all the parent helpers for giving up your time. Wednesday 27th & Thursday 28th November 2019.
