Rhyme Time & Storytelling Leader School Drop-In Sessions

Rhyme Time & Storytelling Leader for School Drop-In Sessions

Local schools often visit Childs Hill Library for special drop‑in sessions that introduce children to stories, songs, and the joy of reading. We’re looking for enthusiastic volunteers to lead Rhyme Time or Story Time activities during these visits.

• Prepare age‑appropriate Rhyme Time or Story Time sessions tailored to the visiting school group.
• Deliver lively, engaging sessions using songs, stories, actions, and props as suitable.
• Encourage participation from all children in a friendly, inclusive manner.
• Ensure the session runs smoothly and stays within the agreed timeframe.
• Create a safe, welcoming, and well‑managed environment throughout the visit.
• Follow all safeguarding, health, and safety procedures.
• Communicate clearly with visiting school staff to support smooth coordination.
