“Thanks for injecting so much awe & wonder into the children at St John The Baptist today. They LOVED your stories ♡” @brockwayL
“We had a marvellous afternoon with you and your stories, Vanessa, I am still gasping about one of the #scarystories! It was wonderful, as always…Thank you so much for coming, Vanessa, to see Berkhamstead Girls and Berkhamstead Boys. We so enjoyed your visit and can’t wait until next year” @BerkoLibrary
There was fantastic feedback from all age groups and practitioners. All the children were engaged and were enthralled by you – even the under-twos wanted it to carry on! – Manager, Coin Street Nursery, SE1 EYFS
Thank you so much for your wonderful storytelling sessions today – the children and teachers were absolutely raving about the sessions. –Camelot Primary School SE15
Thank you so much for the storytelling sessions before half term. One member of staff said she had never seen someone engage the children so well. They were mesmerised!
– Ravenscourt Park Prep School
It was as if the world stopped.
“it’s been simply magical…. (Vanessa’s) team managed to meet the needs of all the children just as I’d asked. I saw first hand children shouting “this is the best story I’ve ever heard”, recognising the storyteller from their first visit, asking them to come back again and their faces lit up when they were gifted their books. Feedback from the schools has been overwhelming positive – this simply had to continue!.” Coventry Building Society (3 year-project with 2 storytellers, designed and led by Vanessa).
Students with additional needs
I regularly visit SEND schools for multi-sensory stories with lots of interaction, creative props and musical instruments. Please let me know your needs and I will devise something which suits your group perfectly. Read about the unusual SEND story I devised for the Museum of London here
