Please note: many of the stories are of a mature nature and may include violence, drug references and sexual themes. They are intended for a mature audience. Stories may include proofreading errors, as they are genuine student work.
Particular praise goes to the script for Geckonomics - our Class Clowns skit that took out the ACT competition and represented the school and the territory at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival this year. This year we also acknowledge the talents of our LitLinks shortlisted entrants, Malakai Hayes and Iggy Gavrilovic. They were at the top of the pack of ACT student writers across all schools in Year 11 and 12, and their stories deserve a read - you can find them in the Narrative Writing section below!
11 English T engaged in a film study and then were asked to investigate and generate a feature article expressing a stance on a social issue raised by the movie, challenging their audience to think about it in specific ways.
12 T English students again selected their classes based on studying a particular genre or form. These included: non fiction, crime fiction and science fiction. Here are a selection of their final pieces, which include short stories and feature articles.
Writing a story seems simple... but make no mistake, our students will often persuade you how to feel about social issues or represent a concept to shape their readers' views. In 2025, Literature, Tertiary and Essential students have all had the opportunity to write short stories and here are some of the best.
Whether scripting clever comedy or reflecting on exhibitions, our Drama students are talented writers whose scripts create a world on paper which they then bring to life in Class Clowns, Come Alive and school based performances
Year 11 Essential students were asked to call our LTC community to action - prompting them to change their mind or behaviour on an issue important to our cohort. See if they change your mind too!
