Debutots Sunday Family Story Play - Simon the Lonely Stingray

A new and original Debutots story will be brought to life in this class which combines singing, dancing, Interactive storytelling and early years drama. We focus on speech and language development and promoting a child’s confidence and creativity through drama in a relaxed and fun way.

Our story for November is called “Simon the Lonely Stingray.” As Anti-bullying week is the 11-17th November we will be trying to make friends in Wavy Sands with Simon the stingray and learning, it is best not to judge a book by its cover!

Today, there are more than 100 toxic plants growing in the UK alone. So, which fatal flora could be lurking in your garden?
