Many of us have always known this but it’s so important to have it confirmed in writing. Nature is GOOD for us and children feel better and learn better after spending time outdoors. Thanks @WildlifeTrusts 🐞

"With young, empowered writers, we want students to think about, talk about, and be proud of the work they are making as authors and illustrators. The same is true with us as teachers." --Erica Steinitz and Elizabeth Wilson via @writerswhocare https://t.co/39YcA9XbZa
Coming up next week is Knighton Literary Festival... and I'll be there on Weds 30th with the story of the 'The Woodcutter's Tale' and to talk about the book published by @BooksBears.

“For children, who can sometimes feel invisible or unheard, a writing project that allows them expression is a way to boost confidence and self-esteem – and celebrating it gives them a real sense of achievement.” @SteveColeBooks

Enjoyed setting up a display in the Community Case this morning @HerefordMuseums on Broad Street, above @HfdsLibraries, with a story basket and much-loved props & puppets. And one of the first copies of 'The Woodcutter's Tale.' ✨🌳✨

Hello on the 8th October - the 281st day of the year, in the 41st week.
😀FunKey Fun Fact!
Did you know that on this day in 1965 the Post Office Tower, now the BT Tower, opened in London - at 189 metres tall, built with 13,000 tonnes of steel & 4600 square metres of glass.
Had a great day in Birmingham @BarrViewPrimary with Y2 & 'The Woodcutter's Tale' in #Storytelling & Drama Workshops, and Y1 for '#Story Time' in the afternoon. Thank you to all the children & teachers who took part - it's such a pleasure to explore the world of the imagination!
