Curriculum Conversations: The Importance of bringing stories to life and exploring simple tools that spark rich storytelling experiences
Join us for an inspiring journey into the “Magic of Books: Bringing Stories to Life”.
This is primarily an in-person event at Hall Green Library for those working within the South Cluster Districts (Edgbaston, Hall Green & Moseley, Northfield, and Selly Oak). However, we are running this session in a hybrid format, with an online dial‑in option for anyone who can’t attend in person.

“Magic of Books” is a creative series bringing stories to life through storytelling, rhythm and rhyme, and inspiring reading spaces — discover practical ways to spark early literacy, engage families, and make reading joyful indoors and out.
This inspiring and interactive session will explore how storytelling can be embedded throughout everyday practice, creating rich learning experiences for young children.
Through discussion, reflection and shared ideas, practitioners will gain practical strategies to foster a love of stories and reading, helping children develop as confident communicators and future readers.
