I have recently been running virtual workshops with a number of schools.
With Years 3 and 4 at Woollahra PS, I have been meeting once a week over six weeks for a Circle Story workshop. It has been great to share this program, first developed at Papunya School, in a new way.
Given the current lockdown in Victoria, it has been very special to be invited to ‘meet’ with students who are working from home. Thanks to Carnegie PS, Braemar College and Peninsula Grammar for inviting me. The photo is a screen shot taken by the school while I was working with Year 5 Braemar students who had been studying A Banner Bold. Uplifting comments by some of the Braemar students (included with permission of parents and the school) are on the Talks and Workshops page. Here is a sample:
“I liked this writing workshop because it was like we were talking to Nadia Wheatley face to face. It was really interesting and inspiring to listen to her because she seemed really passionate about her work.” Josie
“The Nadia Wheatley workshop taught me that you should look into nature for ideas for writing.” Joe
