The Secret of the Snottygobbles: A Fairy Story

Synopsis

  Strange things are happening in the forests around Perth. The banksia candles have dimmed and the Bush Fairies that light them -Pingle, Mallee and Mouse Ears (a Banksia Elf) - are very worried. Could the mischievous Snottygobbles be behind it? Or is there an even darker force responsible for the changes in the forest? As the magic fades and the candles go out, the Bush Fairies and their friends, the Insects, face the fact that they need to take action before it’s too late!

 

Join Pingle and her friends as they confront the naughty Snottygobbles and fly with them across the sky on their dangerous quest to discover what’s making the magic die. far away, across the Ocean, go with them to the Court of the King and Queen of the Fairies where they will battle the evil forces of the Goblin Tribe. Help Pingle and her friends to defeat the Evil Ones and to restore magic to the Fairy Kingdom so that once again the banksia candles can light the forests of Western Australia.

 

This year’s production, with its focus on the topical issue of bullying, promises to educate as well as entertain young audiences.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN:

This book has been divided into three sections:

·        Section A: General Information

·        Section B: Activities

·        Section C: Additional Resources

 

Section A: General Information

This section contains information on all of the people/animals, places and things that can be found in the play - both fictitious (eg. fairies and elves) and real (eg. insects).

A table of contents has been included in order for you to locate the information more easily. There is also a “Link to the Play” (LINKS) for each entry, as some of the information relates to set pieces and objects found on the backdrops, etc.

 

Section B: Activities

This section contains activities that relate in some way to the play - for example, making a fairy friendly garden.

The activities have been sorted into the Learning Areas, with links to outcomes and age groups (early childhood, middle childhood or early adolescence), as well as links to the play.

There is a table of contents at the beginning of this section for easy navigation to the Learning Areas. Also, each Learning Area has a table of contents where you will find the links to the outcomes, age groups, and the play.

 

Section C: Additional Resources

This section contains bulk information that is not directly related to activities. You will find things like alphabet sheets and how to draw characters, as well as lesson plans linked to bullying.
