World Book Day 2025
We have enchanting workshops to super-charge imaginations for World Book Day 2025!
- Our most popular options are our large group storytelling sessions; led by an engaging and experienced Storyteller, they’ll work with up to 120 of your children to bring celebrated stories to life.
- Each session explore tales from one continent; choose from stories from Africa, Asia or Europe.
- We can also work with a class at a time, focusing on an individual children’s book. Tickle the fancy of younger readers with The Gruffalo or The Rainbow Fish.
- Or, for older readers, our Story Quests or Shakespeare Plays are the perfect way to spark their imaginations.
Why choose a Freshwater session?
- We use interactive hands-on learning, allowing all your pupils to access the topic.
- Using carefully chosen drama techniques, we provide children with a personal involvement in the topic which helps to embed subject knowledge.
- We provide the teacher with an opportunity to observe pupils’ progress from a different perspective.
- Our experienced drama facilitators bring a dose of fun!
