We are delighted to share the fresh voices of 51 young writers!
Phew, this was quite a project and our biggest edition
of Write On Speak Out, so far!
Here is the link:
We will bring your Fresh Voices 2025 [Rangatahi] later in the year.
Our 2025 Fresh Voices project has broken down barriers to provide access to free Write On workshops and publication support to young people in Ōtautahi Christchurch, Waitaha Canterbury and Rēkohu/Wharekauri Chatham Islands.
Some of the Fresh Voices from Rēkohu/Wharekauri Chatham Islands, Pitt Island School and Addington School
You will find an eclectic mix of writing selected by the incredible tamariki who participated in the writing workshops and recording sessions.
Nga mihi nui to the schools who participated in this project and the champion teachers who supported their young writers.
