What's On at the Writers Centre in February

It’s back to school for kids on the South Coast, which means the South Coast Writers Centre’s Young Writers Groups are up and running again!

Starting the week of 10th February, join experienced mentors Rhys Lorenc, Rebecca Monteleone and Bron Pierson in a nine-week workshop series, where young writers (ages 10 to 18) are encouraged to develop their craft and create work they are proud of in a relaxed, inclusive and supportive space.

Classes run on Monday and Tuesday afternoons for ages 10 to 13 and Thursday afternoons for ages 14 to 18. Plus, all-new Saturday morning sessions in Wollongong Library, 10am-12pm, for ages 10 to 13.

Single trial sessions are available for prospective students.
