Where Stories Come Alive: A Week of Creativity, Confidence and Imagination

Stories have the power to inspire, connect and transform – and during National Storytelling Week, pupils at St John the Evangelist Catholic Primary School in Billingham truly brought that magic to life. Across the school, children immersed themselves in the art of storytelling through music, drama, performance and imagination, creating a week filled with creativity and confidence.
