Cartoon Workshops - How many students, and what do they need to bring?
Each session can have either one or two grades. As a rule of thumb, four sessions with two classes per session can cater for up to eight classes, or around 220 students. Five sessions can cater for up to ten classes, or around 280 students.
If you've got 400 students at school, we'd need 8 sessions over 2 days, and so on.
Each student needs at least 3 sheets of A4 paper, a pencil or pen and a firm surface to work on. Students can work on the floor, allowing the use of the library or a multi-purpose room.
If there's a spare session in the day after everyone has had a go, we sometimes present an additional session for those students who are particulary keen or could just benefit from a bit more cartooning. It's often a great confidence booster for kids who may struggle in other areas.
Costs
Richard presents four sessions per day and each session is one hour long. The cost is $475. If you need five sessions in the day the cost is $530.
Storytelling - Prep
Richard tells a story, draws the illustrations and gets the Preps to help out with sound effects. The students do not need to bring any special equipment except their voices. If the visit is in third or fourth term, the Preps will also have a go at drawing some cartoons. So they'll need 2 or 3 sheets of A4 paper, a pencil and something to rest their work on.
Session Numbers
We've included a table to help you work out how many sessions you might need. We're flexible about numbers, and will work with you to fit everyone into a cost effective program. If you've got any further questions, please send an email to schools@dustydog.com.au and we'll get back to you.
