DESCRIPTION

ARCHIVED STORIES

Talk Together London team continue delivering creative writing events and workshops at local libraries, schools and Canalside House. The stories are archived on our website and they are accessible to readers for FREE. Simply follow the links below to read the archived stories: 

Stories 2 - 13 years old

By providing children and young people with Legos or modelling clay, we encourage them to imagine their own worlds – whether filled with magic carpets or flying robots.

Stories 14 - 19 years old

To make learning fun and to encourage participants to tap into their creativity, we build emotionally significant links to the life of each writer and engage all the senses and use tools and objects to support and promote thinking.

Stories 19+

Mature students are also benefiting from the simplicity of the story writing templates and report that the strategy helps them overcome writer's block and anxiety in other writing tasks.

FREE Community Event

North Kensington Library, West London

3rd Monday each month 15:30 to 17:30

Is your child enjoying learning? For 2-16 year olds. Parents and carers help 2 - 5 year olds to write their stories.

Stories written by participants are archived by date of attendance and age group. Photos of Lego creations and their stories are published on the Story Library pages.

We are offering for sale as part of our current fundraising drive, because we do not use them anymore or need them any longer and there is limited room for storage, a collection of 'like new' and 'pre-owned' toys.

The Listing Conditions are:

• Like New: An apparently unused toy in perfect condition that has been in storage. A brand-new unused and unopened item in its original protective wrapping and with all original tags and packaging materials included. However, original manufacturer's warranty, if any, does not still apply.
• Open-box: The toy is in perfect condition, however, due to the condition of the packaging, it does not meet the standards for new product. The box may include a "From the library of" label.
• Pre-Owned - Very Good: A well-cared for toy that has been played with, but remains in great condition. The toy may show limited signs of wear, but all original parts are present and in great condition.
• Pre-Owned - Good: The toy is used and may show some signs of wear, however, it is in good condition. The toy is still in a good condition to play with. It is undamaged, and the original parts are present and in good condition.
• Pre-Owned - Acceptable: The toy is used, however, it is in acceptable condition. The toy is in a condition such that it can still be played with, but it is otherwise the worse for wear. Some parts of the toys may be damaged or marked, but all original parts are present. The toy may have identification markings of its owner.
