Do your pupils like writing stories or poems? Would they like to read them aloud to an audience of staff and students at a ‘Telling Tales’ event held at our Waterside Campus? We’d love to hear them and rounds of applause are guaranteed!
Max number of pupils reading per event: 12
We love a good story, especially when someone else is reading it! Bring a group of your pupils to Waterside – we'll provide a selection of books from our School Experience Collection, and they can choose a book and an adult (staff and students) to read to. Certificates for each child who takes part!
Max number of pupils: 20
An opportunity for your pupils to talk to an audience of staff and students about something they are passionate or knowledgeable about. Previous speakers have talked about African elephants, being a young carer, comics and soap making!
Max number of pupils per session: 6
