The Mystery of Braeside Manor

Year Group: 5/6

Please note: This course has been rescheduled and will now take place on Thursday 16th November 2023

Subject: Literacy

This creative, practical day will explore sensory writing in a setting that encourages imaginative thinking. Young writers will use their skills of observation to create mystery and intrigue in their writing; they’ll be introduced to techniques that can hook a reader from the very first line. In the atmospheric rooms of the Braeside Centre, we’ll ask: who might have lived here in years gone by; what were their lives like…and what secrets might the house be hiding?

Pupils will have the opportunity to work with, learn from and be given advice on their writing by an experienced author.
