Students Shine at Arvon Creative Writing Retreat

The recent Arvon creative writing retreat proved to be a transformative experience for students, offering a perfect blend of inspiration, collaboration, and creativity. With the guidance of exceptional tutors, the retreat emphasised creative play and confidence-building, creating a space where students could explore their talents and grow as writers.

The organising staff were deeply impressed by the students’ dedication during the workshops. Participants not only engaged seriously with the creative challenges but also built strong connections with one another and the Arvon staff.

A highlight of the retreat was the sense of community. Students from diverse houses, ranging from F Block to XX, came together to share meals, exchange ideas, and support each other’s creative journeys. The combination of cooking, writing, and laughter created an atmosphere of warmth and collaboration.

The retreat culminated in the creation of the Arvon Anthology, a collection of work that reflects the students’ effort, talent, and unique voices. This anthology is a testament to the success of the retreat and the inspiring environment it fostered.

The Arvon experience continues to be a cherished tradition, encouraging students to develop their creative skills and connect with their peers in meaningful ways.
