The Sword of Eldoria – A StoryQuest Caper

In the second installment of our StoryQuest series for Bradford and Beyond on BCB 106.6FM, we follow an epic tale of discovery, destiny, and ancient power, written and performed by 11-year-old Ahmed from Dixon’s Manningham Primary School. Ahmed’s story takes us from the comfort of a hotel to the heart of a forgotten castle, where a mysterious portal, a three-headed guardian dog, and a lost royal legacy await. With vivid worldbuilding, rich atmosphere, and unexpected magic, Ahmed crafts a compelling origin story for a reluctant hero called to save the kingdom of El Doria. ✨ About StoryQuest: StoryQuest is a creative initiative led by former clinician and author Kate Markham, blending storytelling and neuroscience to support children's wellbeing, confidence, and voice. The framework allows pupils to explore their imaginations freely, collaborate with peers, and take pride in becoming authors of their own narratives. 🎧 This is the second of five original stories written and narrated by pupils from Dixon’s Manningham, each one filled with imagination, courage, and wonder.
