We have a local Open the Book team which goes into primary schools in the St Albans area to act out Bible stories. We currently have space for a Christmas 'taster' for one or two schools and ongoing visits to a small number of local schools every half term.
Open the Book is an exciting storytelling project where Bible stories are shared with children in a way that is fun, interactive and memorable. As invited guests in school, storytelling teams use the Open the Book programme to prepare and present a 10 to 15-minute scripted Bible story to a school assembly, involving the children as much as possible. Storytelling teams are made up of trained and safely recruited volunteers from local churches and organisations, who sign up to follow the Open the Book Code of Practice.
Storytellers use the Open the Book Storytelling Bible and Handbook. The Storytelling Bible includes 90 stories, beginning at Genesis and going all the way through to Revelation.
There are now more than 2,500 Open the Book teams going into over 3,000 primary schools across England and Wales.
