Sessions planned anyone with a 'true story worth telling'
Woy Woy resident Ms Gab McIntosh hopes to run a series of lunch-time story-telling sessions in Woy Woy library for anyone who thinks they have a true story worth telling.
Ms McIntosh said that in her own case she had true stories of school refusers.
"I am passionate about alternative schools, and our need for them on the Central Coast."
She said that, rather than giving a long boring lecture, she told stories which told "how things could be so much better for school refusers and their families when we make significant changes to schools."
Ms McIntosh said alternative schools were small, with 35 students "plenty for an alternative school".
"These schools have a different curriculum, different hours and are unique in almost every sense."
She said she was not the only one with a story to tell.
"The story tellings will be followed by question and answer sessions from the audience.
"If we get a few storytellers, we can plan these lunch hours together."
Ms McIntosh said she could be contacted on 0455 195 920 or at indigenousyoutheducation@gmail.com
