Bazil Grumble’s artistic director, Fiona Bazley Hodges, said the session would be a creative exploration of the wonderful story, We’re Going on a Bear Hunt, that would allow young ones to learn through dramatic play.

“The session will help children to learn valuable skills such as turn-taking and will benefit the development of their confidence and self-esteem.”
