Literary arts magazine
A pioneering group of pupils have published O Castro British International School's first literary and artistic magazine. For this extracurricular activity, the editors solicited work from their Secondary and Sixth Form classmates, selected the works, designed the layout and format of the magazine and undertook its distribution. A new issue will be published at the end of the third term. To collaborate send an email to litmag@bisocastro.com
