Fabulous Fairytales!

Was the Wicked Queen in Snow White just misunderstood? Just how full was the Magic Porridge Pot? Were Hansel and Gretel actually hyperactive kids?

A course designed to examine and consider the fairytales we know – and maybe the ones we don’t. You will be invited to re-look at these stories and ask yourself whether there is another perspective to be explored.

Come along and think about unleashing the un-told tale!

Venue

This course takes place at Exeter Community Centre.

Times and Attendance

Class takes place Tuesdays from February 24 to March 24, 2026

We start at 1pm and finish at 3pm. There will be a short break. Please feel free to bring your own refreshments, or hot drinks are available to buy at the Mulberry Tree cafe on site.

You will be required to complete an Exeter College Registration Form at the first session.

Commitment: we ask that learners try to commit to the full 5-week course to enable everyone to get the most from the sessions.

Courses are popular and we run a waiting list on our Eventbrite courses, please cancel your place on Eventbrite or advise us if you are no longer able to attend the course so we can offer your place to somebody else.
