The Writer’s Room, by Gascoigne Primary School
November 27, 2008
Lucia Grace Williams, she made all sort of sculptures with the bits and pieces she collected, but she never could feel the imagination, and she always wanted to live her stories. She wanted to have the same lifestyle, so with all her bits and pieces she collected she made a little beautiful place where people could express their feelings, where you could live the lifestyle of your story. She used logs, branches, chairs, tables, beds, twigs and limestone, also sea shells. People could just be so imaginative and the things you made could be so lively from the ideas you got in that place.

Hi Aisha,

Working here at BLC, I have seen that the writer’s room has attracted a lot of attention here. Some positive, some not so much, but always honest! It have been a pleasure to work with Yemisi and Sarah, Barking really is changing fast, and our hope that BLC should be at the heart of change in the area is beginning to be realised.

Hi Josh
I’ve just put those photos up now – hope they’re the right ones!
The films aren’t ready yet. They need some editing, so it might be a while until we can put them up here. But watch this space.
