Little Story Shapers is a company which has been created, designed and is run by, Sarah Morgan. When her daughter was born she was inspired to follow her dream and build her own storytelling and drama business…
I am a Mum of 2 and a fully qualified Primary School teacher with 12 years experience working with children from Reception to Year 6. I have a masters degree in Drama and have combined these two qualifications and passions to create Little Story Shapers. My teaching experience mixed with my love for Drama creates this truly unique class, which inspires little ones imaginations whilst promoting a love of reading and stories.
I love nothing more than seeing a little one in my class exploring and creating their own ideas. The most rewarding part of my job is being able to see the smiles on children’s faces when they have thoroughly enjoyed a story, which we have brought to life together. Hearing from parents about how their children have gone home and continued to play and talk about what they have been up to in class is what I strive to achieve. I hope that everyone makes lasting memories as you enjoy your precious time together.
“I can’t remember a time when I haven’t loved reading and exploring new books! Becoming a mum to my two little ones was an exciting time for me to show them my passion for reading and instill a love of books in them from the moment they were born.
I believe reading from a young age opens so many new doors and opportunities for little ones. I feel so privileged to become a Class Leader for Little Story Shapers, where I will get to create magic and spark imaginations by sharing a journey together as we sit down and read new stories.
I attended lessons with Sarah for my children, and I have many fond memories of seeing the wonder in their eyes as she brought stories to life. My daughter would be found at the front, sitting on her lap, soaking it all in. This memory was recreated when I had my interview. A little girl came and sat on my lap, and we began our storybook journey together. It was in that moment that I knew I was so eager to become part of the team!
I have many years of experience working with children, from being a former Scout Leader, volunteering abroad for disadvantaged children, to teaching karate lessons and caring for children with special educational needs. I also have a first class honours degree in Natural Sciences. I can’t wait to share my enthusiasm and love of reading with all of you!”
Catherine is a Mum of 2, has a BA Hons degree in Early Years development and has been a Primary School Teacher for the past 8 years, working with children aged 0-6.
“This experience has taught me the importance of reading for enjoyment for early childhood development and as a mum I have also seen the importance of reading with my 2 girls from day dot. Bedtime snuggles are one of our favourite times of the day, not only for boosting their imagination but for fun, laughter and bonding time. After attending Little Story Shapers classes with my girls, I knew it was something I would love to be involved with. I am passionate about reading and I love running Little Story Shapers classes.”
