Creative Careers event at Roman Hill

January 31, 2020 by Candida Wingate

Just back from a very full morning at Roman Hill Primary School, Lowestoft, and their Creative Careers event. During the course of the morning, each Year Group visited the event and was challenged to try and guess what sort of job we did. As you can see from these suggestions, the children came up with […]

Lowestoft Folk – and heritage open days

September 23, 2019 by Candida Wingate

A silver darling, made out of tissue paper and decorated with coloured pens

What an amazing week of Lowestoft Folk fun. First, story teller Lynn and artist Kate went to Elm Tree Primary School, where they worked in the specialist deaf and speech and language units. The children really enjoyed the story and all joined in with making their very own boats-in-bottles and silver darlings. On Saturday, as […]

Lowestoft Folk at the library

The sun sizzled, the temperature soared – and Lowestoft Folk sailed into the main library in town, for a story time of Maritime Tales and a creative session, making tiny seascapes in petri dishes. Lynn told the Maritime Tales whilst Sue – a BSL signer – interpreted the story. Everyone said how much they enjoyed […]

A collection of scallop shells that are decorated with brightly coloured pictures of ships

Our regular sessions may have finished, but we’ve got a really exciting programme of FREE storytelling and creative activity sessions happening in Lowestoft this summer. No booking is required – all the creative activities run on a ‘drop-in’ basis and are limited only by the number of chairs we can get round the table. Stories […]

Friday was the final regular session in our Lowestoft Folk programme – and it was such fun, all the artists cried. First off, Lynn got everyone thinking about what the project meant to them, the things they had done and what were their favourite bits. Then they had to come up with a really short […]

A painted tote bag with the top half dark blue with the words Lowestoft Folk on it and below lighter shades of blue have been used to create the sky and sea. A boat is riding on a white wave whilst above the sails the stars are twinkling

What a lovely session on Friday. The children from Pakefield Primary School visited residents at Hildesley Court for the first time and within minutes it was like they’d always known each other. There was much excitement as the children ripped off the masking tape to reveal the patterns on their Lowestoft Folk Story Bags and […]

Last Friday, the Cabinet of Curiosity was returned to Lowestoft Museum, having spent the last couple of months in the Record Office in Lowestoft Library. Whilst at the Museum, it was lovely to see that they have put up the Suffolk Puff panels in the Domestic Room, alongside the original Suffolk Puff quilt.   Then […]
