Writers Club

Writers Club is held every Thursday at lunchtime. The students have been eagerly writing for a term and helping each other with ideas as well as giving each other feedback. They are looking forward to having their writing published and sharing this with all of Gioia House. Here’s what they had to say about the Writers Club.

I like the Writers Club because you can listen to others’ ideas and share your own as well.

I like to collaborate with others when I write and I get to work with Year 5 as well. It gives me an opportunity to write outside of class and try different styles of writing.

Here is a sample of our writing:

The Abandoned Castle

Blurry visions were swimming through Katarina’s head, but she could not piece them together. One second there was a black snake, the next was a gloomy castle. Soon all Katarina could see was her friend Emily trapped behind bars locked in a filthy old cage. Katarina leaped out of bed, snatched her phone off of the bedside table and immediately called Emily.

Tracked

Click, clank. Mission accomplished. Hi I’m Andrew Clark, this is my story. I’m a top secret undercover agent, always on the run. I have a family back in Pennsylvania, but they don’t know my secret. I get to visit them once a year at Christmas. My job is so undercover nobody knows what I do, not even my closest friends. I work all day and night with one day to spend with my family, at Christmas time and that’s it.
Ines Bolger, Georgii Nohra and Anastasia Bucciarelli
