‘Writing is its own reward’

Henry Miller

The Emanuel School Writers’ Awards were held in the Millie Phillips Theatre on Monday the 19 November. Students were recognised on the night for their high quality of writing throughout the year, with their work displayed on the night. Students’ works included essays, short stories, feature articles, speeches, book reviews and poetry.

Two winners were selected from each year group on the night – a Most Dedicated Writer and a Writer of the Year. Our Most Dedicated Writer Awards go to the students who have worked to improve their writing or who have shown great consistency in their writing this year. Our Writer of the Year Awards go to those students who have produced the most consistently excellent writing this year.
