Mondays

11+ Writing Group

Time: 10.00am-11.30am

This group’s aim is to encourage young writers to set out their personal writing goals and work to achieving them with our help and support. Children in this group have worked on storytelling, poetry, creative non-fiction and screenwriting and are now all working on individual projects. We tailor the sessions to meet their individual needs, but also set writing challenges and prompts, group work and often focus on characterisation, story structure, literary devices and overcoming writing hurdles.

Cost: £4 per session payable in advance half-termly
