Leeds Curriculum - 50 stories
Posted: Thu 23 Nov, 2017 2:38 pm
Hi All
I am new to Secret Leeds so bear with me a while. I am working with Leeds Museums and Galleries developing a new local curriculum for Leeds focusing on the 50 stories every primary school child should know before they leave school. We have been holding story gaathering sessions and talking to lots of people to refine down a good list of stories with associated learning resources that are linked to the primary curriculum. If anyone wants more info do get in touch but all the resources will be hosted on the MyLearning website http://www.mylearning.org/
My enquiry here is about a story we have heard about an elephant being stuck in a ginnel somewhere near Kippax when the circus came to the area many years ago.
Has anyone heard of this story and have any more information at all even if its just about the circus in that area ? Im looking at finding some evidence if possible and using this story as a hook into a thematic resource around leisure and entertainment in Leeds. Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks
