Shawn Goh & Leona Wu Shun Ning of Class 4A participated in the Storytellers’ Toolbox Workshop and Grooming Workshop on 26 May, 28 May, 5 August & 8 August.
The training sessions focus on the following:
§ Why tell stories?
§ Storytelling games and activities.
§ How to find stories that are suitable for telling.
§ Techniques for learning story structure.
§ Techniques for imagining a story through different sensory modes.
§ Performance tips & Storytelling practice.
Upon the completion of training, these trained story tellers will tell stories to Primary School participants at the NZ NE Carnival. Whilst telling the stories to their peers, the story tellers will be able to develop communicative and leadership qualities. They learn to respond humbly / graciously to questions raised by their listeners and this hone the servant leadership skills.

Shawn was selected as one of the storytellers for Group B for the NZ NE Carnival. He had fun at the workshops and I hope that the experience had been an enriching one for him too, allowing him to learn more about himself -his own strengths & weaknesses - to become an even better story teller.
