We have been busy developing a new children’s play titled The Magical Adventures of Super Singh. With the aim to create a new South Asian play that fuses Punjabi heritage within creative storytelling. The idea is to empower young children of faith, celebrate identity and allow them to embrace their cultural heritage.
Over the past few weeks, we have been delivering workshops across Sandwell Libraries and inviting children from schools in Sandwell to take part in these fun-filled workshops.
The sessions have proven to be a real success and the impact of this project has been incredible!
Take a look at the feedback we have received from schools, parents and teachers following the sessions!
“The message was powerful and reinforced how important reading is! “ – Teacher
“Clear and engaging – the facilitators kept the children & teachers entertained! – Teacher
“Was inclusive for all and gave the children the opportunity to talk about their
own experiences without any pressure” Teacher
“Friendly inviting and calm – the children were so absorbed!” – Parent
“It made them more mindful of how to pronounce names and the importance of
that!” – Parent
“Aman was amazing! I am Aman I am a Superhero!” – Child
“I am happy about sharing my food and what I eat any home with my class” – Child
“I am a superhero now! – Can I do the show with you?” – Child.
Children have engaged with the story, they have shared their ideas, and they have brought their own creativity into shaping the world of Super Singh. Their voices are at the heart of this process, and will echo throughout the development of our new play in writing. We are thrilled to be creating a play that is reflective of their culture and lived experiences.
