"Words mean more than what is set down on paper. It takes the human voice to infuse them with deeper meaning." — Maya Angelou
In this course we will develop our writing expertise across a range of genres. This option will both consolidate and challenge your current knowledge of the writing process. We will look at poetry, fiction and non-fiction with a focus on expert one-to-one feedback. Conferencing is a significant part of how the course is facilitated. This option is designed to provide you with both creative freedom and the chance to bridge your current skills with the writing requirements needed for success in the senior school. We will refine our craft as authors and develop our own unique personal voices. If you want to be challenged, supported and developed as an author, this is the course for you!
