The group is led by an adult member of the SCWG.

Deliverables undertaken by the SCWG-YP include: 

· Discussion on writing theory;

· Practical lessons on writing;

· In-session and independent writing exercises; 

· Appraisal and workshopping of ideas, and

· Guidance on creative writing and practical advice about publishing.

Drop in to celebrate the end of exams and the school year with a screening of the 1995 movie Clueless:

Warp back to the 1990s to meet Cher, a Beverly Hills High schooler. Though she seems superficial, a typical popular girl with shopping and boys on her mind, she also has wit, charm, intelligence. This will get her in trouble, however, when her attempts to fix other people's lives don't work out quite the way she hoped…

A loose adaptation of Emma, Jane Austen's 19th-century comedy of manners. Come for the drama, stay for the outrageous 90s outfits!

(97 min., English subtitles)
