Marist students were continuing in the Marist Senior School’s strong tradition of creative writing when they entered the Young Times writers competition, “The Claws of Macra”.
The girls responded enthusiastically to the newspaper’s challenge: to write a winning Dr Who story, which was spotted by Liliana Barnard, the school’s librarian. The Marist Senior School is an independent Catholic school in Ascot, Berkshire.
Lucy Farrell in Year 9 beat readers all over Britain and online readers worldwide to see her story published in the Times.
