Description
The “Story to Stage” competition is presented by the NET Section of the Education Bureau. The Puppetry
Team of the NET Section organises a professional development workshop and a cluster meeting for the
teachers of each participating school. Professional advice will also be given to schools to help enrich the
teaching and learning of English language through puppetry. This competition supports our belief in
catering for learner diversity by creating a variety of learning opportunities for students that foster the
development of all four language skills: speaking, listening, reading and writing. Puppetry is an effective
and versatile learning tool with a unique approach to the development of literacy skills in a fun and
engaging manner. In preparing for this competition, the native-speaking English teacher (NET) and a local
English teacher (LET) will collaborate in training a team of five KS2 studentsto select a story, devise a script,
design puppets and props and apply puppetry skills in their performance.
