What Teachers are saying

"Our pupils have absolutely loved being part of the Tata Storytime's Storytelling Club. The children have shown real joy in learning the art of storytelling and the powerful way that words can excite, entertain and inform them. It has also been brilliant for them to experience new stories from a variety of different cultures and to hear them discussing the club around the school has been extremely pleasing. We can’t wait for more of our children to get involved and would encourage all schools to get them in and see for yourselves!"
