Hot off the press, the 2020-21 Words anthology, Words in Action, is in the hands of 100 published student authors and their families. You will also find it in libraries in the City of ¹ú²ú´«Ã½ and schools, and you can read it here.
Unique to Burnaby Schools, the Words Writing Project is a literacy tradition that began in 1985. It celebrates the best in student writing and provides career exploration by inviting students district-wide, from Kindergarten to Grade 12, to submit an original story or poem for a chance to get published.
You’ll find the most recent published anthologies below. Please sit back, and enjoy the words of our young authors.
