National Storytelling Week

National Storytelling Week takes place every year and is a celebration of the power of sharing stories. Stories teach us about the world, they allow us to step into someone else’s shoes and feel empathy, they help us to relax and escape and they can help develop essential literacy skills.

To celebrate storytelling week, taking place from 30 January to 5 February 2023, The Literacy Trust Organisation have created a fantastic programme of events and resources that will enable you to take your pupils on a journey from listening to stories to becoming young storytellers themselves.

These include National Storytelling Week resources for early years through to KS3.
