Blank Page #2: Nayland College Book of Student Writing 2023
Calling all student writers! The Nayland College Book of Student Writing will be published again this year.
Last year we published our first edition of Blank Page, Giants in the Playground, which was full of wonderful and inspiring writing. This year we are going to publish another great collection of student poems, short stories, articles, letters, essays, and more.
For students interested in submitting their writing, it can be in any form, it can be written in English or Te Reo Māori, and can be accompanied by their own artwork. We are also looking for artwork for the cover, preferably created by one of the student writers.
We also want to know if students are interested in being on a book editing and publishing team. We work with The Copy Press publishers and working with them could be great experience for students who may want to publish their own writing in the future.
The deadline for submissions is 2pm, Friday 18 August (week 5, term 3).
The books will be available to purchase from school about midway through term 4. For now, we still have some copies of last year’s edition (pictured here). Please visit the Business Centre at school to purchase your copy for $20. It is a wonderful read!
For more information about this year's book, students can see the posters around school or ask any English teacher.
