Soul Food is releasing
creative writing magic by providing a community literacy program
to over five hundred students in Melbourne's Northern suburbs. A
cursory glance of the work completed amid the participating
schools will reveal the success of the innovative Writing
Passport Program which marries literacy with the visual arts.
This program promotes positive habits of
the mind in order to develop creative thinking and self expression
using a wide range of materials. An important side benefit of this
program is that students gain self awareness, self confidence and
they become more socially resilient.
Soul Food is a free site that provides exciting
free features. One way you can help further that work is by supporting
a mini Scroungers' Center For Reusable
Art Parts at LaTrobe Secondary College. The home of SCRAP
is a bit far from Melbourne so I will simply have to nick their
wonderful idea. Send any of your artistic scraps to Mrs Heather
Blakey, LaTrobe Secondary College, Waiora Road, Macleod West 3085,
Melbourne, Victoria.
