Story Explorers (9-10 years old) summer course in UK Boarding Schools, by Oxford Summer Courses.
Story Explorers juniors summer school at Oxford Summer Courses for ages 09-10 years. Study Story Explorers with Oxford Summer Courses. Great stories don’t just happen by chance. You need to know how to create a character, structure a plot, and grab the reader’s attention, then keep it page after page. Learn how to do all that on our engaging Story Explorers course. We’ll teach you how to immerse an audience and craft characters. You might create interactive adventures with comic strips, look at the role of photos and podcasts in modern narration, or take inspiration from Britain’s best-loved authors. Ready for chapter one? Once upon a time, you joined us for an unforgettable adventure. You got to learn all about how the world tells stories, and how to tell your own. The end. (Or is it?). Participate in curriculum enrichment activities, including a reflection session facilitated by our staff members, allowing time to reflect on the day’s lessons and activities.

Accommodation will be assigned based on room availability, with the option of staying in either a private room (single room) or a shared room to foster friendships. Regular room checks and a focus on safety ensure that students are comfortable and well-supported throughout their stay.
