St Ives High School Literary Journal

Welcome to the introductory and experimental first edition of the St Ives High School Literary Journal.
Everyday, mIllions of high school students around the world create works of literary brilliance; poems and short stories that should be shared and published, but which remain buried between the barred lines of exercise books and entombed in the growing pyramids of garbage heaps. The reasons for these tragedies are twofold; firstly, overworked English teachers often lack the resources to guide their students towards a proper expression of their work, and secondly, adolescent self-esteem and inertia inhibits any independent effort to seek-out publication through alternative means.
The St Ives High School Literary Journal aims to take one step closer to resolving this dilemma. St Ives High School is a public high school on the North Shore of Sydney, Australia. The poems and short stories in this eBook represent a fraction of the emerging talent and capability present in the students and it is hoped that the publication of this journal will inspire future students to embrace the opportunity to share their work.
