Hopetoun Crescent Garden is having its yearly storytelling session during the Autumn break as part of the Storytelling Festival.
This will be Thursday 19th October at 11am and free to all!
The session is called “Once upon an Autumntime” and told by the well known author/ writer and professional storyteller Tim Porteus.
We are intending to have tea and coffee, water and soft drinks available in the gazebo along with some cakes made with the James Grieve and Cutler Grieve apples that we have grown in the garden this year.
We will have tarpaulins available for the children to sit on and some chairs but it is suggested you might like to bring your own foldable chairs.
Look forward to seeing you once again. and keep your fingers crossed for good weather.
Kind regards
