How did it go?
What an utterly magical morning we spent with illustrator extraordinaire Helen Stephens and lyrical poet and writer Owen Sheers at the Warwick Arts Centre. The audience of over 400 year 3 and 4 children and teachers were transfixed as we listened to Owen read extracts from their beautiful book Drew, Moo and Bunny, Too while Helen effortlessly and skilfully illustrated accompanying scenes live on stage. With pirates, adventure, friendship and magic carpets, you could hear a pin drop - it was so spellbinding! Thank you to all who came. And how wonderful to give every child a free copy of Drew, Moo and Bunny, Too to take home and keep.
Owen Sheers Workshop
Year 3 and 4 children from three lucky Coventry schools enjoyed working creatively in workshops with Owen Sheers in their own classroom.
Helen Stephens Workshop
After her performance with Owen Sheers at the Warwick Arts Centre, Helen visited Cannon Park Primary school and ran a fun and inspiring drawing workshop. The children were very keen get drawing themselves.
