About This Event

A free song-writing workshop for children, ‘The Jungle Jam’, will be held at Newcastle City Library on 20 August 2026 at 12PM. The session is run by Explore Learning and encourages creative music-making.

Join us for a fun, song-writing adventure that takes children on a journey into the jungle

Explore Learning are proud to sponsor The Summer Reading Challenge Library Zone for 2026. We are delighted to be able to offer this FREE workshop centred around this year's Summer Reading Challenge theme, ‘Read to the Beat’.

This song-writing workshop has been designed by Explore Learning’s expert curriculum developers for children aged 5-11. Explore Learning tutors will coach children to develop their story-writing skills through a series of challenges and puzzles. By the end of the hour they will have created a magical story for a young book bee who needed their own unique story.

Children will undertake a journey into the jungle where they will experience ‘The Jungle Jam’ but this year there’s a problem…the band isn’t ready and they need you to help them!

This workshop is suitable for all 5-11 year olds whether writing comes easily or not. Our team will coach your child to use their imagination, overcome challenges and get excited about song-telling! Register today.
