What does The Journey Man bring?
The Journey Man has programmes and material for those aged from 3 to 16 (Primary Years and Middle Years). He may come as a world-travelled storyteller stopping off at the school to tell the class some tales, he may lead older children out on an adventure with artefacts hidden in the school grounds, or as a drama practitioner and author enabling students to enhance their creative writing. Johnny chooses the most appropriate “Journey Man” to present to the pupils, so that they will not only be intrigued, but also able to make a connection, gaining inspiration from practical advice and techniques.
One unique aspect of The Journey Man’s storytelling work across all ages is his focus on physicality, both from within his own presentation and the involvement of the students. Not only does this kinaesthetic style strengthen the learning and the memory, but it provides a solid connection for those students for whom English is an additional language.
