ThingleToodle Session Presenters
ThingleToodle, a Road Safety character, is visiting preschools throughout Victoria. KPV is recruiting creative people in rural Victoria to present the ThingleToodle education session to preschool children as part of a road safety education program in 2012. KPV is calling on professionals with experience in children’s theatre or in delivering entertainment programs for children with expertise and a sense of fun. Sessions requiring presenters are to be delivered in the Barwon South West, Grampians, Hume and Loddon Mallee regions. If you know any creative, enthusiastic performers who may be interested in presenting the ThingleToodle sessions to children please ask them to contact
