At Creative Write-it, we are dedicated to inspiring, encouraging, and empowering young writers. Our programs have been developed around the understanding that creativity and storytelling are open to everyone, that magic can happen with a little one-on-one attention, and that the vital skills of clear communication and creative thinking will support us throughout life. Creative Write-it is based in Balwyn North, VIC. All programs are currently being held online. |

Your team has been super amazing in bringing out the best in Isaac's writing abilities. He always looks forward to his creative writing workshops. I really like the way you are always devising and updating workshop plans with a wide range of genres, and you apply very creative approaches tailored to Isaac's writing needs. Big thumbs up for Creative Write-it!

At Creative Write-it, our goals are to:
Weave
our love for storytelling into everything we do, using our skills to help young writers discover, develop and share their own stories.

Reach
every child where they are, and provide the tools and safe space to progress along their individual writing journeys.

Imagine
a world where dreaming, discovering, exploring, creating, and collaborating are recognised as fundamental skills that will help us throughout life. Each of our workshops is an opportunity to show what’s possible.

Transform
attitudes towards writing as a requirement for school and related outcomes. The value of writing extends well beyond the classroom. The definition of ‘good writing’ is much so much broader than what can fit neatly into a report.

Empower
young people to express themselves creatively, and have fun with it! We provide them with the individualised attention they need to run with ideas, think deeply, write clearly, and believe in themselves.

Why Creative Writing?Creative writing is a tool for self discovery, expression, connection, imagination, and joy.
There has always been somewhere to go for sports coaching, music lessons, or school-related tuition. But what about the kids who love to write and are eager to pursue this further? What about those who find writing boring or hard? An English tutor can help with the technical aspects of writing, but a Creative Writing mentor can do this and bring the creative process to life every step of the way - making the learning process fun, inspiring, and unique to each individual. In a world that is increasingly systemised and outcome-driven, creative writing can be a sanctuary for freeform thinking, idea crafting, joy for the sake of it, and the kind of exploration that helps us grow. |
We believe that when young writers feel confidence and pride in their writing skills, they can process their experiences, voice their ideas, become more compassionate people, and make the world a better place.
