This writing club started in 2013 with just 2 members, Rasyid and Kyra, as a way to keep them motivated to continue reading and writing. This initiative started from the concern that the Indonesian national curriculum does not equip their students with the essential writing skills and has yet to foster their love for reading. Since then, more friends have joined along to read and write with us, now the group has grown to include 13 young reader and writers!
