Year 1 children had a great time at the St Helens Library BASH Awards. We really enjoyed meeting author Dan Worsley @dan__worsley & listening to his story ‘The Junk in the Trunk’ and finding out that our favourite book ‘Cats in Chaos’ had won the under 7s category. @STHLibraries

An amazing session this afternoon @STHLibraries for the BASH awards! Year 5 loved @dan__worsley story telling today ‘Pat on the Head’ and can’t wait for their teacher to read it to the rest of the class!

Think this will forever be one of my favourite Tales to perform especially when the children laugh in all the right places. Will never tire of putting on the rubber gloves and goggles 🥽 🧤 🐮
