The writing class at my local community house is an ongoing source of education and inspiration for me since I first joined several years ago. The tutor, a published poet and author, guided me through my first awkward lessons and helped me gain confidence in my enthusiastic but unpolished first efforts at writing. My fellow classmates offered me a warm welcome and have continued to provide support through to the present day. Each class member works on their own project but we read each other’s work in order to offer positive feedback. Today I find myself part of a small group of dedicated writers who have achieved a modicum of success in short story and poetry competitions throughout the country. Several class members have had their work published in magazines and anthologies. Writing is a solitary occupation but I feel the support and friendship offered in the Professional and Creative Writing Class at the North Ringwood Community House is essential to the success of any aspiring writer.
As a government registered Learn Local provider North Ringwood Community House Inc. offers a range of education and training programs designed to meet your learning needs. These programs are designed to help learners gain the confidence and skills needed to look for a job or go on to further study.
