Year 2 were invited by the Friends of Old Moat to take part in an interactive storytelling session led by local storyteller Cathy from Bob Tales. The event was organised to celebrate the opening of the new outdoor classroom and amphitheater space at Old Moat Park. Although the weather was very wet, it did not stop us from having a wonderful time, and the workshop was moved to Withington Library instead. The children loved listening to the stories Somebody Swallowed Stanley and Tidy, which both shared important messages about looking after our planet and keeping it clean and safe for wildlife. The children thoroughly enjoyed the session and were delighted to leave with a book of their own to keep.
