Volunteers

‘Your Language Needs You!’
 
Fighting Words will not succeed without volunteers.  So, we’re looking for YOU.  
 
We need volunteers with teaching skills, and/or writing skills, and/or language skills. We also need volunteers with software and advanced design skills.  We also want people with advanced helping-hand skills, and putting-stuff-back-up-on the-shelves.  
 
If you want to help, and enjoy yourself, then volunteer.  

Volunteers & Primary School Fieldtrip

Working together, encouraged and helped by Fighting Words tutors, the class writes an original story which they see being projected up onto a big screen in the Fighting Words centre as they write.
The children decide on the characters and plot and go through the story together sentence by sentence, editing as they go. An artist is illustrating the story as it is being written.

Each child has the opportunity to write their own individual ending to the story. Throughout the fieldtrip, tutors work with the children to encourage them and assist them as required. Their work is bounded and each child receive an illustrated copy of the book they writte to take home. The book is personalized with a photo of the student included on the back of their book (the About the Author page).
