We have just finished the sixth 'Write Between the Posts' project and are now looking forward to launching Tackling Writing. The focus of this project is to motivate and enthuse pupils to enjoy the writing process and to write well.

Each school that takes part visits the Club where they are treated to a guided tour of the grounds, interviews with players and activities such as a quiz and ball games. They are encouraged by working in small groups with their teachers in school and by having visits by players to the school to read their work and hand out certificates. This year the schools were lucky enough to receive free tickets to a match and to be invited to parade around the pitch in front of a packed stadium. All these experiences inspire the children to write stories, poems and match reports.

Write Between the Posts has been a huge success and we are now looking forward to continuing this under its new name of Tacking Writing.

The schools that have taken part this year are: Westfield, Threeways, Long Vernal, St. Michaels, St Keyna and High Littleton.
