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.

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.

Well the Preps at Holy Family School in Mt. Waverley had an enjoyable day today. They started the day with our show “Three Animal Stories” and were enjoying being squirted by Blue the fish and also feeding Silly Billy Dog. They then went on to see behind the scenes and discover how the show was put together. After a break they then all made some awesome puppets in one of our puppet making workshops. Here is just a few examples. Thanks to all the adult helpers! Tuesday 19th November 2019.

Today, Monday 18th November I visited St Thomas the Apostle Primary in Greensborough North. I performed “Three Animal Stories” for all the Preps and also for local kindergarten children who may be at the school next year.
