Storytelling on world book day at Fosseway school.

On Thursday 2nd of March Bradley and Robin  from Openstorytellers went to fosseway School and
did a storytelling of Uwangalema.
Uwangalema is a story of African  animals  that include a zebra, a lion, a Rhino and a Tortoise.
The story starts off with all the animals in a valley in Africa. Over the last few days the animals started to forget the name of the magic tree in the valley of Africa.  On the hills of  the valley lived a god, the god knew the name of the magic tree. During the day animals took turns to go up the hill and find out the name of the tree.


We thought the 2 groups we performed to were very good listeners and they took part in all the discussion of the story. The first group was post 16 and the second was primary, the story was suitable for both and they all enjoyed it.
We would like to go back and work with Fosseway school in the future on new projects or a workshop.
