Why join Our Stories?

 

Free teaching resources

Our Stories provides resources to help you run a series of local oral history interviews, where the students are the interviewers! 

Give your students new skills

Design for year 5-8, Our Stories helps your students learn listening and interviewing skills, builds empathy and allows them to experience local history first-hand.

Be part of a wider project

Your classroom will be part of a wider, oral history project. The best stories from each region are edited and mapped to the Our Stories App, where they can be discovered by locals and visitors.

After hearing what she survived, I don't think those kids will ever look at an old woman the same again.
