About Story Explorers Leeds: Class Visit

A child glancing past the camera with a smile on her face, stood next to a large blue and yellow structure, with paper trees in the background.

Take a fantastical trip to the far reaches of outer space, the depths of the jungle and the bottom of the ocean in a free experience for Reception to Year 3 pupils.

There’ll be lots of books, of course, but also intriguing objects, surprising sounds and exciting art. Oh, and there’s also a giant cuddly octopus! Whatever it is, everything in Story Explorers has a story to tell, and so do your pupils.

Develop literacy, oracy and social skills in this free class visit including a story-time, book discussion and creative workshop with a Librarian.

What to expect when you visit:

  • a story-time, book discussion and creative workshops with a Librarian
  • interactive elements for children to play with and creative ways to get involved, including a moon you can step into and explore, an octopus to sit and read with, and an activity table to draw and create at
  • see some weird and wonderful items up close – selected from and inspired by the collections of Leeds Libraries, Leeds Museums and Galleries, and the British Library – all while you explore three imaginary worlds
  • a mini children’s library to sit in and relax together.
