Online MENTORING

We offered young New Zealand writers the opportunity to give voice to their thoughts and ideas about Lockdown 2020. Then, in 2022 we gathered Voices for the Planet. 

​

The poems and prose pieces were developed with the guidance of Write On mentors through prompts, workshops and/or online feedback.

 

Voice recording was supported by Plains FM 96.9.

Write On is full of poems, stories and articles by young writers aged 6–19. It’s a great read, a superb resource for teachers and a welcome addition to any school, community or family library.
