Step Into a World of Wonder as August the Platypus, The Point’s Storyworld, returns for its fourth year this weekend.
The Point’s beloved Storyworld is back, inviting under 5s and their families to embark on a magical adventure filled with imagination, laughter, and life lessons.
After the adventures of Lou Lou the Snow Dragon last year, this year’s enchanting tale introduces August, an energetic little platypus learning to be himself in a changing world. August is in Mrs Pouch the Wombat’s class at The International School for Mammals, where mischief and adventure are never far away.
But, when Mum delivers unexpected news, August discovers what it truly means to be strong in this tiny tale of mighty strength – a perfect way to introduce your little ones into an immersive world of storytelling.
