World Book Day 7 March 2019As part of World Book Day 2019, we ran a ‘Short Story Competition’, where students were challenged to write a story up to 500 words in length. We had many entries, particularly from Key Stage 3 students.

Stories were judged by our Sixth Form English students. The Key Stage 3 winner was Rachel Daly with her story titled, "Alpha 1". Nuria Everett was the winner of Key Stage 4 with her story, "Walk". Particular congratulations to those two, but also to everyone who entered. It was clear you had all worked hard on your stories!

This was also a House competition, with points awarded for participation. First place went to Blackstone, with Bigg in second, Christie in third and Matilda in fourth place.

You might also like to know a national Young Writers' competition is currently open to students aged 11-18. This time you have to write a survival story in 100 words! See Mrs Ambrose in Room M8 for more details.

The winning entries are attached, in PDF format.
