Stogumber village C of E Primary School has been working hard on their Storywalks all year under the careful tutelage of Mr Wedderkopp. It's been an epic journey and this was the spring day when all that hard work came together. Pupils lead the trail and read to their parents and careers who had come especially to see what all the fuss was about.
For me it was brilliant as many of the adults brought their own iPads and smart phones to read the story from. The film just captures the little sound bites which happen as the group and story bubbles along. It was a great day and a really brilliant way to celebrate the children's reading and writing skills.
If you want to travel to Stogumber in Somerset to read their story trail then this is the link below, it can be enjoyed from your armchair too but I'm sure you'll agree that's just not the same as walking the trail. Plus there is a little mountain of pebbles at one specific point on the path, each one is left by a Storywalker who has read and traveled the trail. If you read it from your lap then you won't be able to leave a counting stone for the children to see!
