I'll be working at the two events below delivering my own particular
(peculiar?) take on environment education, inspiration, play and frivolity
through creativity…..
21 -22 February 2015: Annual Festival of Outdoor Learning
at
the Hollowford Centre, Castleton, Derbyshire
This two day event is a delight. Always worth visiting for new
ideas, new friends and a striking setting. I'm there on the Saturday with two
different sessions:
Morning: Finding Stories
Spinning new stories, wild tales and improbable
characters out of found materials. Working indoors and out, we'll look at
techniques to use with groups to build stories to tell, practical hints and
useful themes for ourselves as leaders and additional activities to give
ourselves the confidence to weave new stories on the spot
Afternoon: Wild Books
Capturing moments: new stories, precious memories,
ongoing diaries. Simple book-building activities combining quick art activities
with writing and reflection to allow people to make their own personal records
of adventures, discoveries and inspirations
