Story Explorers 2026-27
Where stories come to life
Strathallan’s much-loved literacy programme is back for for the 2026-27 session, with new stories, guest readers, and adventures the whole family can enjoy together.
What is Story Explorers?
At Strathallan Prep School, we believe in the power of storytelling to ignite young imaginations. Story Explorers takes young readers on a storytelling adventure designed to capture the imagination and spark a lifelong love of literature. Each session is themed around a classic or much-loved children’s story, with a range of immersive experiences inspired by the tale.
Story Explorers: The Christmas Pine
Join us at Strathallan Prep School on Saturday 28 November for a festive morning of storytelling, creativity and hands-on fun inspired by Julia Donaldson's The Christmas Pine. Young Explorers aged 0-6 (and their grown-ups) are invited to step into the story and enjoy a live reading, themed crafts and story-inspired activities celebrating the festive season.
As always, there will be plenty of opportunities for families to relax, connect, and enjoy refreshments together in the warm and welcoming surroundings of Strathallan Prep School.
