THE NOTEBOOK CLUB
Fill your notebooks, publish your thoughts: creative writing across the genres.
Wednesdays 3pm - 6pm | Ages 9 - 15 | January - March 2016
In this after-school creative writing workshop, we engaged with the medium of WORDS. Through writing, reading, group discussion and writer’s workshops we played and experimented with words, creating a space for exciting, rich, literacy-building conversations, connections and expressions of ourselves and the stories we love. We wrote, and learned to think by writing, about writing, and like writers. Each week we explored different genres of creative writing: poetry, prose, non-fiction, fiction, drama, graphic novels and comics, as well as other experimental forms.

I am from
The tree that stretches and withers
In the sunlight.
I am from hands with scratches from climbing trees.
I am from
My brother’s arms strong with hope and youth.
