It was my pleasure, I had lots of fun.
It was a pleasure to host Year 10 students from Calder High last week - writing inspired by the gardens & led by fabulous tutors @kimmoorepoet & @Elmisaurus

We had such a moving experience at our The Gravedigger's Wife screening.
@elmisaurus , a storyteller invested in writing, directing, facilitating, translating and education, treated us to a poetry performance after the screening.
Thank you to our customers who came along.
