October 2021 writing contest

We are holding a creative writing contest for our readers (ages 3+) with the topic of 'The book that I liked the most.'


Students must submit a story that features a character from a book they have read and enjoyed. Stories can expand on the original story's plot or take the characters on a new adventure, there are no limitations! Young readers can draw pictures instead of writing.



RULES


  1. Length of the story should not exceed three pages (single side).

  2. Handwriting should be readable

  3. Pictures can be drawn and coloured to aid the story writing

  4. Parents should only guide – please do not give any specific ideas or help them with writing. Spelling mistakes are okay



This template is OPTIONAL. You can print and use it for your submission or use any 3 pages available:




Winning entries will be judged based on two main criteria:


1) Creativity and imagination

2) Clarity in writing (ages 7+)


There are four categories – based on age-groups used in our colour coding for books (Blue/Green/Yellow/White)


Each of the four winners will get:


1) Gyan Library t-shirt

2) Writing diary

3) Compass box

4) Certificate


The best pieces of writing will be also published on our website.


Please submit your entries when you visit the bus by October 18th. Winners will be announced on October 25th.
