Holiday Camp for Young Writers

There are opportunities to attend school holiday camps for young writers aged from 9 to 14, a junior camp for younger students and an advanced camp for older students.

Write Like an Author is an internationally acclaimed writing course that teaches young writers the skills and techniques that professional authors use to create their stories.  During the camp, each participant will develop and write an original creative story under the guidance of a well-known, professionally published author.

The camp will be held at Sheldon College during the school holidays, starting on Tuesday, September 28, 2021 and running until Thursday, September 30, 2021. The presenter is Brian Falkner, author of books for children and young adults.  The camp is ideal for young people who have a dream of becoming a published author or anyone who wants to improve their writing skills.

The camp is non-residential, and runs from 9am to 4pm each day.  The course fee is $195.00, which includes a discount for early registration.  The number of places on the camp is strictly limited.
