The children in Reception Class and Year 1 spent a wonderful morning exploring The Story Museum in Oxford. The day began with our budding bookworms reaching for the stars in a space-themed storytelling workshop. The children entered an atmospheric, darkened room with sensory lighting and 3D images to set the scene, and then took off in their imaginary rockets and landed on a strange planet.
Next, the children were full of enthusiasm and wonder as they explored the Small Worlds area. Highlights included finding the home of Winnie the Witch and her cat Wilbur, complete with dressing up costumes and jumping on the super-sized bed. Some children went on a bear hunt, whilst others made dinner for a very hungry tiger!
It was a thoroughly enjoyable morning, enhancing our youngest pupils’ love of literature.
