Telling our stories

Last week Oliver Baldwin’s mum Belinda came into the writing space to talk to children about telling someone else’s story.  Belinda is an academic and journalist and described how she has written books and articles on other people and told their stories.  Children were given the task of writing the story of another child.  Some children chose to tell their own story.  Here is an example of some of the wonderful stories the children wrote and are continuing to write in the writing space.

Nina chose to write Iris’ story. 

 

Iris’ Story

By Nina Bagaric

Iris went to London.

Iris went to Big Ben.

Then, Iris went to Paris.

After Iris went to Paris,

she went to the Eiffel Tower too.

She went on the aeroplane

and she unpacked.

She had a rest.
