About this Event

Ready to turn big ideas into a finished story?

Join Clare for a structured three-session, story writing series where children will plan, write, and complete their very own original story — building sentence-level skills and confidence every step of the way.

Each session builds on the last, guiding young writers through the full storytelling journey in a fun, supportive environment.

Small Group Size: Maximum of 8

At The End of The Programme Your Child Will Gain:

A clear understanding of story structure
Stronger sentence construction
Richer vocabulary
More writing confidence
A finished story to take home and celebrate!

Each 2 hour session costs £20 per child. The total cost to join the 3-session series is £60 for 6 hours of storywriting fun! Booking the full series before 1st March secures the £60 rate. Monthly bookings (1st–9th of each month) total £65, as separate processing incurs additional platform fees.
