✈️ Student Writing Spotlight ✈️
We are pleased to share a narrative writing piece by Shane in one of our English classes.
As part of a creative writing task, students were asked to write a narrative based on the saying "Every cloud has a silver lining" — the idea that something positive can emerge from an unfortunate situation.
In his story, Shane creates a fast-paced and suspenseful sequence of events as the main character races to catch a flight. Just when it seems everything has gone wrong, the story takes an unexpected turn that perfectly captures the meaning of the saying.
We were particularly impressed by Shane’s ability to build tension, describe the character’s emotions, and keep the reader engaged right through to the final paragraph.
We hope you enjoy reading his story as much as we did. See if you can predict the ending before you get there!
Well done, Shane! 👏

Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award
Children have the right to great stories
To lose yourself in a story is to find yourself in the grip of an irresistible power. A power that provokes thought, unlocks language and allows the imagination to roam free. The Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award was created in 2002 by the Swedish government to promote every child’s right to great stories.
