Creating Great Characters Writing Workshop

In this writing workshop, Katrina will lead children through a series of short, fun activities designed to develop a well-rounded character who might be the star of their next story.

The activities used in this workshop are those Katrina uses in her own writing.

Children must be accompanied by a parent or carer, and everyone requires a ticket.

Meet for this workshop at The Dixson Room, Ground floor, Mitchell Building.
