Book Launch 2019
Our Year 7 students discover in English lessons just what it takes to write a story and get it published.
From writing the story, to proof-reading and editing it, through to designing the look of the book and making sure the cover is eye-catching, our students learn that the publishing process takes quite a long time.
In fact, it's not until Year 8 those self-same students can actually hold a physical copy of their book in their hands. They can also share their publishing success with parents and staff at the annual Book Launch, which is held in early December.
At this year's event, author Jon Robinson gave an inspiring and amusing talk about the reaction his English teacher had to a particularly gruesome Christmas story he had written for an English assignment.
He was also on hand to give out some awards to students who had produced outstanding work during the book project.
Students also made a video about the book project which you can view below.
