• BBC 500 Words Writing Competition

  Fri 04 Oct 2024 Headteacher

  Calling all budding authors...there is an exciting opportunity for all children aged 5-11 years old to enter the ‘500 Words’ Story Writing Competition organised by the BBC. This year, the two age categories will be for 5-7 year-olds and 8-11 year-olds.

   

  Children of all abilities are encouraged to use their creativity and imagination to write a story they would love to read without the pressure of having to worry about spelling, punctuation and grammar.

   

  There are fabulous prizes to be won, plus the opportunity for the children to share their wonderful creativity and imagination.

   

  Your child’s teacher will talk to them about the competition at school, however, their entry should be written at home and submitted directly by you. 

   

  Entries can be submitted any time from now until the closing date, 9pm on Friday 8th November.

   

  All details can be found at:

  If your child does decide to enter, please also email a copy of their story to us. We would love to read their stories.
