Storytelling in the library
We were so lucky to be able to welcome Nicky Bingham to the library this month to share her wonderful adaptation of Goldilocks and the Three Bears with the children in Year 2. They were rivited and so were we! We will be inviting her back soon to demonstrate the art of storytelling to other children in the school.
