Imaginative Adventures Workshop

This video workshop from The Bookworm Players will take you on an imaginative adventure using inspiration from Smriti Hall’s book ‘Rain Before Rainbows’. (You do not need to have read the book in order to do the workshop.)

We will look at how to create our own unique escapes using just our imagination, with a focus on understanding our feelings and an emphasis on hope. Pupils will join in with actions and a range of drama techniques, including visualisation and breathing exercises, to relax and imagine an amazing adventure.

The workshop includes a written resource to accompany it with further activities that relate to the themes. To access this, and explore many more resources, please go to the Liverpool Children’s Festival of Reading: Cultural Programme Padlet. Just scroll across to find this resource.

Suitable for KS1+

Alongside an exciting performance programme, Katumba provide one-off drumming workshops and educational projects to raise the aspirations and ambitions of young people, adults and educators around the country. Our diverse team of teachers and professional musicians are highly skilled and have led activities in schools, community centres and many other organisations across the UK and worldwide. Not only are our drumming classes energetic and fun, but also offer a multi-cultural experience full of cross-curricular learning. Languages, geography, maths and science are just some of the subjects our qualified and experienced facilitators delve into, topped off with a huge amount of exhilarating drumming! While most of our workshops are based around percussion, we also teach dance. Groups learn about Brazilian and African rhythm and movement, and combine their new skills to create a fantastic final performance! Through this shared experience, outcomes include teamwork, listening, laughter, empathy, solidarity and a wealth of achievement for everyone involved.
