Congratulations to our student Isadora, who is now a published author! During the Cirencester History Festival, our Librarian was delighted to attend the prize-giving ceremony at Cirencester Public Library for the Soroptimist International Cirencester and District Young Writers Short Story Competition. At the ceremony Roz Savage MP presented students with their awards.The competition, entitled Her Story: Women and Girls’ Voices from the Past, invited young writers to use their creativity and storytelling skills to bring women and girls from history to life. Through authentic voices and vivid stories, participants explored the experiences of women and girls whose stories might otherwise have gone unheard. We are incredibly proud of Isadora for having their work recognised and published. What a wonderful way to celebrate creativity, history and the power of storytelling!

Congratulations to all the young writers involved!
