A new group (the third session for our 2011-2012 sessions) started yesterday and we’re in full swing doing sock monkeys, journal prep, and discussing the elements of story telling and editing!

Currently, we are running four 5-week sessions (6 students per session), the first one started Oct 24. Session 2 started Nov 28 and is currently underway.
SESSION 3 (Jan 23- Feb 23) is full! We are accepting applications for SESSION 4 that runs Feb 27 – Mar 29.
The student receives minimum wage for the 5 weeks and a session runs Mon-Thurs 9:30 – 5:30 within District 319 building (Main and Cordova). If you are a youth between 19-28 and would like to arrange an interview for upcoming sessions, visit your local employment counselor or contact Katarina directly at kthorsen@shaw.ca.
