Last week we celebrated Literacy Week with a fantastic range of activities and an incredible level of student participation. On Monday and Tuesday, more than 355 students took part in the knock-out spelling rounds, showing impressive spelling skills with great enthusiasm. It was a spell-tacular event!

Later that afternoon, 20 students participated in a creative writing workshop with author Carla Salmon, developing new skills in establishing purposeful settings, characterising in depth, and learning tricks of the publishing industry.
