The activities were engaging and thought-provoking, and there were a lot of laughs heard and fun had by everyone who attended. Lachy was a great mentor for the students today and they enjoyed working with him and the support and guidance he offered.

The Melbourne Young Writers’ Studio magic is also available to fly (by broomstick), apporate or even vanishing cabinet its way to primary schools and high schools around Melbourne and beyond for incursions and excursions! Whether it’s for a half day, full day, few weeks or over a whole term, we have immersive, fun and inspiring school creative writing programs. Available for primary and high schools – the programs will ignite young writers minds and advance their writing skills.
