Preparing the children of today for tomorrow...
Young Writers Studio with Mrs. Curley (Grs 5-9)
Program Details
Does your child love stories, poetry, or creative thinking?
Join our fun and engaging Creative Writing Summer Camp, where students will explore poetry, short stories, and imaginative writing through exciting prompts, games, and activities designed to spark creativity and build confidence. This low-pressure camp is perfect for students who enjoy writing, storytelling, or simply using their imagination. Whether your child is an enthusiastic writer or a reluctant one, they will be encouraged to take creative risks, try new genres, and develop their unique voice in a welcoming environment.
The camp will include creative projects with plenty of choice and flexibility. Activities may include mini writing prompts, full short stories, exploring different poetry styles, blackout poetry, collaborative storytelling, etc.
Students are encouraged to bring a drink and snacks or even a lunch, especially if they are joining from a morning program!
