The stories of St Francis of Assisi Primary School

Yes­ter­day I spent the first day of Book Week at St Fran­cis of Assisi Pri­mary School in Mill Park, Vic­to­ria. The grade six stu­dents that I did ses­sions with there were keen book read­ers and keen writ­ers too. I’ve been fin­ish­ing up my school ses­sions with lit­tle lessons in story writ­ing and by the end of each ses­sion at St Fran­cis, I’d work­shopped char­ac­ters and plot with the group and together they’d writ­ten a cool lit­tle story up on the white­board. Oh, and illus­trated a front cover for their story too!

And it is with great plea­sure that I now present the sto­ries as writ­ten (and illus­trated) by the grade six stu­dents of St Fran­cis of Assisi Pri­mary School.

These story ideas are just awe­some. The Good Were­wolf idea just about made me cry!

My favourite is Time Foot­ball, which I can def­i­nitely see in bookshops.

But I also love the way The Rap­ping Camel raps coun­try music and not hip-hop. And I think Miss­ing The Horn is a very poetic title.

thanks mel and teresa! we like our story, and all the grade 6’s sto­ries from St Fran­cis of Assisi!

and thanks andrew for blog­ging our sto­ries on the inter­net. we just read them in class, it’s pretty cool to see our very own story pub­lished on the inter­net. it’s even bet­ter to see that peo­ple are read­ing them and com­ment­ing on them!!

and thanks again for vis­it­ing our school last week.
