Leap Into Books 2010 - coming soon!

Leap Into Books is Laisterdyke Business & Enterprise College's annual literacy event for about 100 children in and around BD3. This year (2010), we're aiming for a storytelling focus, with a wide range of oral storytellers from a variety of traditions, and a big visit at the end.There will be evening events, which this year will mostly be hosted 'in house' - tickets will be very cheap, and available from the school, or from this website as soon as they're available.

Already signed up (in no particular order!)

• Bob Pegg
• Pete Castle
• Pete Chand
• Tom Palmer

• Taffy Thomas, MBE
• Richard O'Neill

We're also planning at least one morning event aimed at giving parents ideas for telling stories to their children, and some events in conjunction with other organisations.

 We're currently in the very early planning stages for 2010, but soon you'll be able to see photos from 2007, 8 and 9, as well as get access to various documents, and sign up to be kept upto date with developments.

Also, check back here regularly for information about a possibly very interesting development for Bradford!
