Last week, some senior students from Room 16 shared a collection of outstanding writing with me. As part of their learning about ANZAC Day, they were challenged to write ‘letters home’ as if they were soldiers. The results were incredibly powerful. Like the work of skilled authors, their writing captured deep emotion and brought the experiences of others vividly to life. I was especially impressed by the students’ ability to step into someone else’s shoes and write with such empathy and authenticity. Simply excellent work!
