The Kindergarten students have had a number of story telling sessions animated by Ms Patricia Gatt from the National Literacy Agency. Parents were invited for these sessions.
The sessions where held in English. Above students can be seen actively participating in the Story Keith with the Magic Hat. Below students role played various characters during the story What the Ladybird Heard.
The Magic of Stories, Seħer l-Istejjer, kicked off for the second consecutive year at our school. This is a story telling service, provided by the National Literacy agency, consisting of a number of animated story telling sessions held for students and parents at school in the early years. The school would like to thank Ms Patricia Gatt for animating these sessions and the parents for joining in these sessions.
The second round of “The Magic of Stories” is currently underway. Ms Pat, animator from the National Literacy Agency, visits the school on a weekly basis to animate stories for the kindergarten students. Parents are invited to join these sessions.
The school has embarked on a programme with the aim of building a love for stories together with the National Literacy Agency. The programme, The Magic of Stories, or, Seħer l-Istejjer, is based on a number of 6 sessions where parents are invited to join their children, in class, while stories are being animated. Thus far the sessions being held are for K2.1, Yr 1.1 and Yr 1.2. However we shall further extend this project to reach the all the classrooms of early year students.
Special thanks to Ms Patricia Gatt for animating these stories and to Ms Marianne Schembri for offering this initiative to our school.
