A big thank you to Creative Folkestone for running an Art workshop for Hazel class last week. The children worked with two local artists, Emily and Tania, who delivered the workshop: Character making, storytelling and performance.
The children began the morning by discussing storytelling together as a class and exploring the ancient art of making shadow puppets. They then separated into small groups to write a script and story and make simple shadow puppets from card. The groups had a little time to practise before they performed to the rest of the class. We had so much fun!
Another wonderful morning! Thank you to Emily and Tania from Creative Folkestone and to all the adults involved in the trip.
The puppets look stunning when lit from behind; please do take the time to view our gallery:
