Mrs Moore's writing class
Check out the talented writing produced earlier this term by the writers in my writing class! Our theme was ANZACs and the war and our focus was using impact vocabulary to create imagery for our audience. You'll find all of the poems on the windows of the HQ in the quiet space - check them out next time you are visiting our block. Enjoy the read...... Mrs Moore 😊
