Explore. Believe. Write
Ink Wing Academy ignites minds. It unlocks hidden and true potential to discover storytellers, poets and each participant’s writer within.
Ink Wing Academy’s aim is to spread a passion and enthusiasm for writing through engaging, unique and quality projects within schools and the community. Run and led by Michelle Young - a dedicated and highly experienced educator whose passion lies in guiding and inspiring those who she creates with.
Tailor-made and carefully crafted writing projects promise to immerse each individual in their writing exploration. Writers are motivated with a multi-sensory approach and activities, each with a purpose, that build confidence in playing, exploring and experimenting with words - ultimately creating strong, independent and confident communicators and storytellers.
Play with words, notice their brilliance… and yours!
