Learning African languages, one word at a time!

During our Black History Month celebration, the children had a wonderful time learning animal names in Yoruba through storytelling with ! 🐘🦁🐒

A special thank you to Auntie Femi for bringing along her animal friends and props from her book, making the learning experience fun, interactive and memorable! 📚❤️

It was lovely seeing the children discover new words while having fun.

At ACUCA, we believe that sharing languages and traditions with the next generation is an important part of keeping our heritage alive.

📚✨ Who’s hiding in Aunty Femi’s story bag? 👀🐾

Meet Olufemi Abayomi, also known as O’Femz, the storyteller behind Tales by Aunty Femi, who will be joining us this Saturday! ❤️

A wife, mum, nursery practitioner and children’s entertainer, Femi shares stories that teach morals and values while encouraging children to find confidence and strength in themselves. She wants every child to know they can reach for the stars — and be stars themselves! 🌟

Her creativity goes beyond storytelling: she is also the Creative Director of O’Femz Creations, making customised bags, shoes and accessories using African fabrics. She has recently published her first children’s book, The Ọ̀kẹ́rẹ́’s Journey to Self Belief. 📖

This Saturday, some special animal friends from her book will be joining her… 🐾 Children will meet her animal props, learn their names in Yoruba, and discover what unfolds as her story comes to life!

Who will be peeking out of the story bag? Come along and find out…

📅 Saturday 10 October

✨ Our Black History Month celebration was a day full of creativity, learning and inspiration! 🖍️🎨

Children enjoyed exploring our art and craft tables, making colourful bookmarks, flags, horse masks, and Black History Month colouring pages 🎨🎭🐎

We also had a book corner to spark curious minds and inspire young readers with amazing stories and role models. 📖✨

At our “I Have a Dream” wall, children shared their wonderful dreams for the future — from traveling, peace in the world, and becoming riders to helping others and changing the world. 💭🌍

The day was filled with rhythm and stories thanks to the amazing Sam, who led our djembe drumming and storytelling workshop, bringing African culture and history to life through sound and words. 🪘🎶

It was a beautiful day of creativity, pride and unity — a reminder that every child’s dream matters and that together we keep growing stronger. ❤️💛💚🖤
