Extension 2 Study Day

Recently Booranga collaborated with the Wagga Branch of the English Teachers’ Association to host what has become an annual Extension 2 Writing Day.

Presenters included Shaun Ellis, President of WETA (Mater Dei College), Corrina Hawke (Wagga Wagga High) and David Gilbey (CSU). Students came from several Wagga high schools and focussed on both strategies for writing and on developing their particular project for Extension English 2018.

Students found the day a lively and stimulating set of challenges about the nature and focus of writing and worked through ‘speed-dating’ sessions to refine and critique their projects. It was evident the networking amongst students was a creative and productive aspect of the day.
