Speedy Stories

This week I will be running the first of my WeLL What’s Your Story? school based sessions, and I am feeling nervous! In order to be able to work on creative writing with each student in the school during my visit I have had to develop a series of age focused workshops which will facilitate speedy story writing. Although Westover Primary are aware that they are my pilot school for this technique I still want to avoid mistakes and ensure that it ends up as a perfect and fun day for the students.

I have some lovely goodies to give out to the students at each school that hosts me for a WeLL What’s Your Story? event – writing certificates, bookmarks, stick on little healthy Pompey fuzzies and pencils.  Also, because this first school based WeLL event is on World Book Day,  I will be giving away books donated by HarperCollins, Anova Books, Rebecca Emin, Gary Smailes, Tamsyn Murray, Peny Bush and Stephanie Parker.

    Good luck Denyse. This must be rather nerve wracking but I bet the school children will love having you in to do something different with them. I hope it goes really well and thank you for the mention xx

      Thanks Rebecca. I am a bit nervous as I only have 30 mins per year in order to be able to work with every student. Is 30 mins enough? I’ll find out on Thursday!
