Story #22
After discovering 21 published works, students are invited to imagine and begin creating the next story.
Format, duration and age relevance of each experience are confirmed with the school while planning the visit.
For educators
An experience
that begins
before the visit
and can continue
after it.
Every visit is planned together with the school. Format, duration, age group, capacity and time windows are defined in conversation with the Kumbuca team.
