SEASONS OF LIFE
Seasons are a good metaphor for life stages. We can learn much about ourselves by examining our personal experience and the views of the society around us, and by comparing this with seasonal images. We will use the different seasons and stages as prompts, sharing both oral responses and the results of reflective writing, then go on to produce draft pieces in our chosen genres.
Ideas will be shared in confidence and draft pieces feedbacked.
The group will be small, confidential and supportive.
