STARDUST STORYTELLING & ENTERTAINMENT
ENGLISH WORKSHOPS
At Stardust Storytelling and Entertainment, our English workshops are designed to bring literature to life through immersive drama and interactive storytelling. Each session is carefully linked to the curriculum and tailored to suit your year group, creating an engaging and memorable learning experience.
World Book Day Workshops
From The Very Hungry Caterpillar to Roald Dahl — we have it all!
Choose your theme and we’ll create a bespoke workshop tailored just for you and your students. We take children on a fully interactive storytelling journey where they don’t just hear the story — they become the characters. Through imaginative play, movement, props, and costumes, pupils work together to recreate and reimagine the tale in the most fantastical way. These workshops ignite imagination, encourage teamwork, and give children an unforgettable, hands-on literary experience they’ll be talking about long after World Book Day is over.
