2. Goals
To publish an anthology in July 2017, collecting the best work together…
To encourage brilliant creative writing which is about students’ lives, their interests, their passions.
To write something connected with belonging

3. Last year…

4. Topics for this year. The title is “My Life, My Stories”
Words I will never forget
Belonging
My favourite objects
Reminders
When it all kicked off
My earliest memory
I wish I could return
Stories my family loves to tell
I'll always be grateful to...

5. Belonging: a piece of writing and photographs…
Next step: students take photographs of places they feel belongs to them, and write about why they feel they belong to this place, writing a poem/story/rap/free writing around their photograph.
Photos to be published must be at least 300DPI and labelled as to who it is, and all permissions granted in writing to the school.
