This week our Year 5 and Year 6 children were treated to a compelling storytelling performance by Jan Blake at the Children's Bookshow at the Theatre Royal in Margate.  57 children were captivated by Jan's unique and unforgettable stories and songs of love and family from the vibrant Caribbean.  Jan Blake is one of Europe's leading female storytellers and has been telling stories to adults, teenagers and children around the world since 1986. 

Every child left the theatre with a free copy of 'Tales from the Caribbean' by Trish Cooke to take home and keep.

We were so fortunate that whilst in the area, Jan came to our school the day after her performance to treat our Year 5's to a special story telling workshop.  What a fantastic opportunity and an invaluable experience for our children.
