In March 2011 Rewrite completed a bespoke project for year 7 and 8 EAL students at City of London Academy. Rewrite facilitators worked with the young people over four sessions to generate enthusiasm for and confidence in creative writing. This culminated in a printed booklet of their stories entitled Under the Same Sun. Go to www.rewriteworkspace.org.uk to read their work.
