Writer-in-Residence

We welcome author Rukhsana Khan to our school this week, and with her, Ilona Beiks from the Vancouver International Writers' Festival.

Rukhsana has written ten books for children and young adults. She is at Charles Hays Secondary School this week to work with students who are interested in improving their writing skills.

Forty students are signed up for this five day workshop. You can follow along with us here, find out what we are learning in the sessions, and read some of the things we write.
