Storytelling at the British Council Library, Pune

Summer holidays are nearly over; here’s my last activity before school begins. This storytelling session is for the little ones at a venue I always love!

Date: Sunday, 31 May 2015

Time: 3.00 to 4.00 pm

Venue: British Council Library,Pune

Overview: Stories are magical. When young children listen to stories, they develop into readers as they grow older. They begin to imagine and create, exploring worlds of their own. Interactive storytelling allows children to experience the magic of stories. Through role-play and drama, the children begin to express themselves and become immersed in each tale.

Fees: Rs 350/-per participant for British Council Library Members; Rs 500/- for non-members

Registrations open on a first come first served basis up to a maximum of 20 participants.
For any further information please feel free to contact Abjesh Thorat on 41005328 or email sugandhi.v@britishcouncil.org

Here are a couple of photos from storytelling sessions I’ve conducted in the past …

    1. Hello, I’m sorry, I no longer work with the British Council, and as an independent facilitator, I’m not looking for storytellers. Wish you all the best!
