Celebrating Block 3

Thursday 25th August & Thursday 1st September

Our last couple of weeks of Porridge & Play Cranhill were wonderful!

We learnt so many new games and songs so it was really hard to choose what to share at the Storyplay Festival.

Before we even started one session some of us were playing Chiri Udi Kan Uda together!

We decided the first game we’d share at the Festival was going to be Willy, Willy, Willy, Willy Oh. Everyone got a chance to say Change your Style or Stay Like That, like Beauty had taught us and there was so much laughter as we tried to trick each other into moving when they weren’t supposed to. A

fter that we brought back some of our amazing dance moves from the warm up for a game of Disco Tag! Genesis and Tiwani were so fast it wasn’t long before most of the room was dancing on the spot hoping that someone would come and dance with them to set them free! 

Then Shiva chose to play Shaylin’s game Trees and again everyone was having so much fun creeping slowly and even if they got caught moving, it was just as much fun to try and catch someone else moving as it was to do the creeping. We love games where every part of the game is fun and no-one ‘loses’. 

In week 4 we worked together to create our very own Cranhill song and it goes like this: 

Thank you all for being part of a wonderful year of Storyplay in Cranhill!

This project was funded by the New Scots Integration Strategy (including EU and Scottish Government funding).

We will be seeking funding in order to continue some activities at the Porridge & Play Cranhill hub in 2o23.

So stay in touch and remember, in our imaginations we can be anyone, do anything, go anywhere!
