Cath Crowley: Fellow in Residence 2010



Melbourne author, Cath Crowley's residency on the 16th and 17th August was a great success. Cath is a popular children and young adult fiction writer and her novels are published in Australia, UK and USA. She ran writing workshops with each Year 7 group and spoke to our Year 8's and 9's about her life as a professional writer.Our students responded very enthusiastically to Cath and our Year 7's produced some remarkable work considering the limited time she had with them.

I was so impressed by the students at Gippsland Grammar. They were enthusiastic
and their pieces of writing were original and full of wonderful detail.

Cath loved her time in the ISC and we really appreciated her energetic approach and hope that she will return to Gippsland Grammar in the future.
