For Schools

I deliver creative writing workshops for students and professional learning programs for teachers.

  • I deliver fun, engaging creative writing workshops for primary and secondary students.

  • I offer professional learning in creative writing for primary and secondary schools. 

    These range from one-off after school workshops, and whole-day seminars, through to term-long programs, and can include multiple school partners.

    I help teachers explore how creative thinking and creative practice can be embedded in literacy teaching.
