Y-03. Feature Writing – Organizations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This may include school clubs, performance-related school groups (band, drama and choir) and community, church and philanthropic groups relevant to students in the school. <\/strong>Feature coverage emphasizes human-interest angles (who, why and how) over traditional hard news elements (what, when).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
