WRITING WIZARDS

In 2012 a group of students who show interest and potential in writing, were selected to form a group to participate in fun activities involving writing.  They chose to name themselves 'The Writing Wizards.'
The names of wizards are - Nick, Brock, Bryce, Sally, Jess, Holly 1 and Holly 2, Zahli, Eleni, Mackenzie, Kiara, Dana, Vi, Josie, Hayleigh, Jayden, Brandon and Cody.




The first event that they are running, is a Writer of the Week competition, open to all students.
They filmed a commercial inviting students to take part and displayed posters around the school.
In groups of 3, each week they sort through the writing entries, complete feedback certificates and judge a winning entry.  They look for appropriate use of writing techniques including ideas, grammar and punctuation.  They film a segment announcing the who was the winner and post it on that week's video blurb.  They also present the winner with a small prize.

Stay tuned for details of winners ...
