Storytelling in Schools – A place of Refuge
Wednesday 6 December, 4pm (45 minute webinar)
Join us as Sita Brahmachari, acclaimed childrens’ author, illuminates the art of harnessing the profound power of stories in your classroom. Discover how storytelling can forge friendships, strengthen communities, and empower pupils, all while navigating the complex world we live in.
Sita will unravel the magic of creating narratives that give young minds a voice and unite communities in times of global turmoil, conflict, and change.
This webinar is specifically for teachers and educators across the UK and will include a presentation and live Q&A session with Sita. Suitable for both primary and secondary school teachers.
