Year 10 Creative Voices - Brigitte Sander's 'Camille's Meadow'
Submitted by mericiadmin on August 9, 2018 - 8:01amTo continue our series on Year 10 Creative Voices, this week we showcase Brigitte Sander’s piece titled Camille’s Meadow which uses the Romantic genre to explore nature and love. As part of the English Curriculum last Semester, students were asked to write a sustained piece of prose fiction. This is the only class that offers students the opportunity to write extended pieces of creative writing.
We look forward to continuing to provide you with the opportunity to read these beautiful pieces of writing and see just how talented our girls are in English!
