Please come along to The Writers' Group. We meet every Thursday at lunchtime in the English room. We have members from 1st year up to 6th year.
We'll be publishing our work once again in our writers' magazine, 'The Zion Zine', submitting our work to external writing competitions (hopefully we'll have more success like Aoibhe in 5th Year winning the An Post writing competition last year!), reviewing each other's work and writing creatively of course. Looking forward to working with this bunch of creative people again this year.
