Enhance your Schools Literacy Program

Why teachers & children enjoy these
hands-on workshops

This interactive experience provides an opportunity for students to explore traditional stories and fairytales as well as familiar rhymes and themes.

 

The  aim of the workshops is to complement the literacy program by stirring the imagination and stimulating confidence and the desire to read
and write stories.

 

The children will learn about different types of puppets, and basic
theatrical experience.

 

 Follow-up incursions include making puppets and performing a puppet show the children will have written in class.

At Polliwog Puppets workshops for schools, your group can...

  • Experience an introduction to puppets!

  • Experience black-light Puppetry

  • Make a Puppet

  • Create a puppet show and have it filmed to keep at school or upload to our website.
