A Selection of Bernard's Books

Videos:

 

Bernard Young

Type of Artist:

Poet

I give poetry performances ranging from to the whole school to in the classroom.

Poetry workshops, readings, talks about how I write, Q & A sessions.

My performances include poems to join in with and some are accompanied by guitar (which goes down particularly well).

Details

Preferred age range:

4 to 11 years (but comfortable with Year 7 & 8 too).
Can work with all ages in infant and primary schools. Readings are tailored to suit all ages.
Workshops: for youngest children I often produce a class poem which we can perform to music. (I am a guitarist).


No of sessions per day:

In most primaries I give a performance followed by 3 sessions.


Session Length:

30 to 45 mins performance.
Workshops can be the length of a lesson or longer.
I always fit in with what the school requires but suggest the best way to get the best result.

I live in Wales, but will travel anywhere in the North West or Wales if expenses are met.
