Are you a children’s author based in the South West?
We would love to hear from you!
Our Young Readers & Writers Program tours primary and secondary schools bringing our children’s authors into schools to spark creativity, celebrate storytelling and foster a love of reading and writing.
The program runs for 2 weeks around the main festival in the Shire of Augusta-Margaret River and the City of Busselton, and is a key feature at the festival where our authors bring the program to life with free storytelling sessions in the Storytelling Snug.
The program is proudly supported by the Rotary Club of Margaret River, Doral Mineral Sands, Margaret River and Cowaramup Lions Clubs.
If you are a children’s author based in the Western Australia, and would like to be part of our program this year, we would love to hear from you.
You will need experience of running creative sessions and workshops in schools and have a current working with children check.
Submissions are now closed for 2025. Thank you for your interest in this program.
