Workshop Fleecy Storytellers- Puppets in the Library
Yes, you may play with the puppets. Puppets reawaken the imagination, they are expressions of creativity. Fleecy Storytellers looks at how puppets are used at Macquarie Fields High School to foster expressions of creativity in a normal high school Library, and across many Key Learning Areas.
In the Fleecy Storytellers workshop, participants will be taken on a short digital tour of Macquarie Fields HS Library focusing on the Puppets that live and work there, followed by turning an everyday sock, into a wild beast, or a little girl or boy, an alien, or a thing that is yet to be discovered. The participant's Fleecy storyteller can then accompany them home to their schools to begin their duties as a Fleecy storyteller.
