ILC Happenings

ILC Happenings

Iggy’s Inkies Book Club

Every fortnight a group of bookworms meet to discuss and rate the books on the Inky Awards longlist. As the year progresses and the students have read more of the titles the debates can become quite heated. The announcement of the shortlist in July is eagerly anticipated and can cause cries of joy or howls of dismay as the “right” and “wrong” books make the list for voting. The longlisted Inky Awards titles pdf can be downloaded here:

The Inky Awards are run by the State Library of Victoria, but are judged and voted on by Australian teens – no adults allowed!

Creative Writing Club

On the alternating fortnights to the reading club the ILC hosts a creative writing club. Students come along to write and share ideas. They are provided with writing prompts to get their creative brains started and then will work individually or collectively on a writing activity to help them plan or work on their own stories or poetry.

New members are always welcome to both clubs.
