Brick company invites storyteller to Whittlesey school
Pupils at Park Lane Primary School in Whittlesey were left spellbound following a morning of magical storytelling sessions to mark World Book Day, which were supported by staff at leading building products manufacturer Forterra’s local Kings Dyke brickworks.
The company invited professional storyteller Marion Leeper to deliver storytelling assemblies focused on the themes of bricks and houses for Key Stages 1 and 2. The first assembly was kicked off by Paul Fitzjohn, Plant Manager at Kings Dyke, who presented teacher Peter Ingham with a donation of £250 of National Book Tokens for the benefit of the students.
Mr Ingham said: “We had a fantastic morning spent listening to professional storyteller Marion. The donation of book tokens they gave us will provide a great number of children with many hours of pleasure. We are so grateful that a local company can support our school in this way.”
