The tent has been emptied, dismantled, and packed up. The hall is back ready for exams. The bookshop is gone (@Booksforbugs 🥲) and the posters are being collected. #cdownlitfest over and out… but still some highlight reels to share… so not all over yet…. 😁

[Marcello Giovanelli @mmgiovanelli]

Really enjoyed talking about Keats today at the Churchdown LitFest!

[Churchdown Litfest @cdownlitfest]

And now @ManjeetMann to Y9 and the rest of Y10 talking about her inspiration for ‘Run, Rebel’ including Growing up in Walsall and her organisation @runtheworldltd #cdownlitfest

[Churchdown Litfest @cdownlitfest]

Today @JaneBailey15 returns from Tuesday evening to offer a praise workshop to some returning Y11 students. Some excellent work produced!

[Churchdown Litfest @cdownlitfest]

The excellent @Booksforbugs are selling Manjeet’s books. You can also pick up books from a range of the authors who have joined us this week! #cdownlitfest

[Churchdown Litfest @cdownlitfest]

The amazing @ManjeetMann with half of Y10, book club students, and a range of Y8 students. Along with a group of students from @Cleeve_School and @HSFGDenmarkRoad to hear from her about her life and writing. #cdownlitfest

Our book club students have been treated this morning to an intimate book club with @ManjeetMann where we discussed ‘Run Rebel’, ‘The Crossing’, and everything that comes with writing empowering yet complex YA verse novels. #cdownlitfest

So unbelievably proud of @7valeschool Year 8 student Mia Griffiths for winning the @cdownlitfest poetry competition. Thank you to the team at Churchdown for such a fantastic day and evening!

@BeckyColeMorga1 @mmgiovanelli @StPetersRCHigh @Cleeve_School We did record! Once we’re finished tomorrow we will attempt to get everything uploaded!

[Churchdown Litfest @cdownlitfest]

And now a busy lecture room for @mmgiovanelli exploring Keats’ poetry with sixth form students from here, teachers from @StPetersRCHigh and a group of students from @Cleeve_School - some excellent insights #cdownlitfest

[Churchdown Litfest @cdownlitfest]

We now have @LewisBuxton93 performing his amazing poetry to our winners and their families. What a treat for all of them, to see a poet live. We know that some of them could have this in their future! #cdownlitfest

[Churchdown Litfest @cdownlitfest]

It’s poetry celebration evening and @lcpalmerpoet is giving us a taste of his poetry. The excellent y7 poets have already given their performances to a packed house! #cdownlitfest
