During two days of intensive workshops, local poet Leni Shilton worked with over 300 students at St Philip's College in Alice Springs. Students from Years 7, 8 and 9 took part in multimodal poetry workshops connected to the theme of The Red Room Company's project, The Disappearing. Beginning with Notice poems and Erasure poems (read Year 7, Year 8 and Year 9 Erasure poems here), Leni led students in poetry writing activities that 'disappeared' letters to develop different forms of writing that are now published on The Disappearing app (read Year 7, Year 8 and Year 9 poems here).
Leni Shilton also composed two poems for the school, 'Into country in our minds with no 'e'' and 'Moments by dry sand', available on the app and the Red Room website (or view above in playlist).
