George Kirk Reads for Children in Need

And the grand total is,,,,,,

Three and a half hours,  six picture book, two novel samplers,  one novel, six poems, a bag of props, 190 children and more socks that you can spray a deodoriser at and my first ever story time marathon is complete. There was fun, there were laughs, there were kites and walkie talkies and scary fish and YES I am still in position of my voice. But more importantly than that there was money, pots of it, both of the real and on line variety.

So with the remaining strains of my very tired voice I would like to announce that myself and the children of St. Mary’s CEP School have raised…..

£443.90

Yes you read that right. And the total may grow. My Just Giving page will remain active till the end of the weekend so you still have your chance to donate. Oh and one last thing, just time to say a very big...

THANK YOU!!!!!!

Pudsey is coming and I can’t wait?

Why? Because on the morning of 16th November I am going to give up my morning lessons and do one of my favourite things instead. Take story time.

But this isn’t your usual story time but a story time marathon. It will start at 8.30 in the morning and finish and 12 noon. Ever single child in the school will have the chance to join in as well as their parents and families. I will entertain, amuse, shock and surprise them with a massive range of stories and poems to suit anyone from 3 to… well there’s no upper age limit to stories is there?

And what’s even better than doing my most favourite thing for a morning? Raising money for one of my favourite charities at the same time. BBC Children in Need, trying to give every child a childhood.

Find out more and donate at my Just Giving page.
