English & Media Studies Department Report
We’ve had another exciting and rewarding year in English and Media Studies classes and in all the related extra-curricular areas. We were really proud of students’ achievements in NCEA and especially the 5 national NCEA scholarships awarded. Katrina Lamont, Pieta Ferens and Rhian Gaffney won scholarships in English and Gareth McMullen and Emelia Mixter in Media Studies.
Writers' Group 2013
We have had another busy year in Writers' Group. Held every Monday lunchtime and open to all who wish to come, Writers' Group can often get very loud! We enter competitions, share our writing, try out writing games and activities and manage to eat our lunch as well.
