Storytime Magazine Reading Groups

This is our second year of subscribing to Storytime Magazine. Each issue is jam-packed with myths, fairy tales, short stories and legends from around the world.

Library Groups

Six children from each year group (1-6) have been chosen to take part in a new reading incentive. Each week they will visit the library to share stories from the magazine with children from another year group - year 6 will be reading with year 3; year 5 will be reading with year 2; and year 4 will be reading with year 1. A new issue of the magazine is released each month. Once the new issues are in, we will send home the previous issue with the pupils who have been reading them.

So far the children have been excited to visit the library and read their magazines - even Theo, our reading dog, couldn't resist taking a sneak peak!

We have subscribed to extra copies to be kept in the library for children across the school to borrow. Why not take a look next time you visit!

Storytime Magazine Create a Comic Competition!

 

Create a comic strip and be in with the chance of winning some fantastic prizes!

To celebrate their 8th birthday, Storytime Magazine have come up with a contest for children aged 4-9 years. The creators over at Storytime have put together a 'Create a Comic' Activity Pack. Within the pack, you'll find tips on how to come up with a story and how to sketch characters and settings. We have a stack of packs you can borrow from the library, alternatively, you can download the pack here.

Once all of the activities have been completed inside the pack, draw you final piece on the entry form and return it to the school library. The closing date for the competition is 30th November 2022. We will accept entries up until Friday 18th November 2022. Once we have received all of your entries, we will send them off together to be judged.

One lucky winner will be have their comic strip published in Storytime; win a bundle of books and a signed copy of 'Laika' graphic novel.
