Creative Writing 6: Writing your Novella

Longer than a short story, but shorter than a novel, the novella is a challenge for young writers to 

• Plan meaningful character development 
• Transition between action points
• Edit and reflect on their writing

In this final course of the 2022-2023 school year, children will combine everything they have learned over the past year into a creative production of their own.

This WILL require at least 1 hour of individual writing outside of class during the first 4 weeks of the course.  

Creative Writing with Colin

The creative writing process is fun and imaginative, yet it is also complex and systematic. Learning to successfully write creatively goes far beyond simply having a good imagination.

Throughout the 2022 and 2023 school year we will be offering blocks of creative writing courses each with their own specific focus and objectives. Together, the courses combine to make a thorough and complete curriculum (including a great preparation for the 11+ entrance exam).

Each course is run separately and students can choose between all, some or just a single course. Participation in previous courses is not required as each session has its own specific objectives and activities.
