Stories are born
from places and sites; a forest, a farm, a tree, a landmark. Stories are about lives that have been lived and pathways that were walked on. People create and tell the stories and the words are passed on. The stories become part of the land, the place, the forest, the farm, the tree... |

The stories were written during the workshop, some by children and their parents, some by children alone, some by adults alone, inspired by the children around and the story teller.
Take Part Now! The stories have been left on the beehives displayed across Centurion Green. Explore and read them, replace them for the next Augustian to discover, add your own! “Augusta Park is a fantastic place to live. Full of beautiful trees, barleyfields, poppy fields, dogs, playing fields and huge oak trees.” “The Old Oak tree I rest under, As the wind blows by, I curl up inside my comfy tent.” “We live on Augusta Park. I love my school. We want the open Space in commemoration of the armed forces. It is placed on Centurion Green.” “It is Saturday. I can see a dog. I can see my friend. I can see-hear my friend. I can hear cars going pass me- I can hear cars.” “Amelia and mummy went to the orchard. Amelia loves to blow bubbles into the wind with her friends. Amelia loves her doggys and Little Preston. Amelia loves to colour.” - Amelia and Mum “ Floors and the green. Heard you coming” “ I like talking to mummy at the park. I say ; “I love you”. “I went for a walk with my family and friends. Luca picked me a flower and said; I love you” - Nicky Armstrong and Luca “ They did a competition to find the name for the green. We suggested Centurion because we are in the armed forces and we wanted to pick something that related to the history. We won. The green is now called Centurion Green.” - Fiona and family |
