Children Write | Create Your Own Mythical Creatures

About the Programme

We all know about Sang Nila Utama and his fateful encounter with the mythical lion that heralded the founding of Singapura. But what was it, really? And why was it there? Join author Joyceline Tully of Pepper Dog Press in this wildly imaginative workshop on developing your own mythical creature.

This session is suitable for children aged 9-12.
