the circle book of childhood stories - update

The circle book of Childhood Stories is ready to be written into.

Thankyou to Brimbank Council, which has approved a grant for the project, as part of their Activation Partnership Funding. It's very good to have their support.

The Circle book of Childhood Stories will be part of three events later this year,

The Think West Children's Festival on Saturday 12th November,

The Pop Up School @ Madden Square, Saturday 19th November

and

The 2016 Public Pedagogies Conference Workshop Day 28th November at MetroWest

before then we are hoping that it gathers plenty of stories on some visits to schools and libraries.

The circle book of childhood stories

is a large circular book, three metres in diameter,

in which to write, read or illustrate childhood stories.

The book travels to different community groups, schools and places in Melbourne’s West,

And invites children and adults to:

read what others have written,

illustrate the stories of others,

or write their own story into the book

The book will gradually grow larger and more detailed, carrying a broad range of stories about childhood, which will enable people to write their own memories, but also be a book to read and provide insight into the experiences of others.
