This year the English Faculty are running an Inter-house creative writing competition.  Over the year, there will be competitions students can enter to win the overall Inter-House Creative Writing House Cup! We have already had our National Poetry Day, Young Writers Poetry Escape and the Christmas Writing competitions. 

 

We have so many talented writers at Luffa and it’s been a delight to read their imaginative and creative pieces, which makes it really tricky for our student judging panel. There are certificates and prizes to be won, along with the chance of being published in the school magazine, The Luffa Lines.
