When will the Festival be rescheduled?
The Festival will be rescheduled for Term 3, 2025. We will announce the exact dates later in Term 3, 2024. We are working on enhancing the program and look forward to sharing new and exciting elements with you.
What resources are available now?
All pre- and post-author workshop resources are available for you to use and will remain accessible until the end of Term 3, 2025. Additionally, we have released new resources, which can be found in each author's program of resources for you to use in Term 3.
Some highlights include:
Mini On-demand Masterclasses:
Middle Primary: Released on July 23rd. George Ivanoff's series of six 5-minute progressive videos where students create a "Dino Plot Dino" story and transform it into a graphic novel poster.
Lower Primary: Released on July 29th. James Foley will model a writing challenge and guide your students through creating a visual literacy story featuring Stellarphant underwater.
Upper Primary: Released on July 29th. Joel McKerrow's workshop will demonstrate how he uses personal memories to create poems. Students will write their own poems using his techniques and models, followed by a response from James Foley offering further guidance.
Can we swap students in 2025?
Yes, as long as the total number of students remains the same. For example, if you had 450 students this year, you can have 450 students next year. If you have any questions or special requests regarding student swaps, please contact us at hello@littlescribe.com.
Do we need to do anything now?
No, your access has been automatically extended until the end of Term 3, 2025. In the meantime, we encourage you to explore and use the current resources. For instance, you might consider using the "Cultural Connections for RAP: Empowering Students through Storytelling."
This program supports schools in creating their Reconciliation Action Plans (RAP) by empowering students to develop and publish permanent resources. It includes exemplars from other schools using Littlescribe's resources, showcasing successful implementations of similar initiatives applying local knowledge, stories, and language.
