What an amazing morning at King Edwards High School for Girls!<\/p>\n
Year 5, plus Miss Allender and Mrs Platts, went off on a jaunt to learn more about writing a good story. The excitement on the bus was tangible and even Year 5 were excited!<\/p>\n
KES had invited a real life author to come and teach five local schools about how to create an exciting short story from a published author\u2019s perspective. He spent some time discussing with the pupils how to keep the tension of the story going.
