Writers! This is the final week to get your 50-word short stories in!

For the month of August, we have given all students and staff the chance to get creative and share their writing. We have had a great turnout – especially from Year 7 to 11 so far – which means it’s going to be hard for the judges to decide!

Entry forms will close at 11:59 pm this Saturday so make sure you get your story in ASAP. All information and entry forms can be found here: https://sites.google.com/a/carmel.school.nz/english-2019/home/50-word-story-competition (you must be on the Carmel College network to access this site – parents/caregivers, you can access the page with your daughter’s school email account).

UPDATE: A quick amendment – due to the amazing level of participation in the year 7-9 division, we have decided to even out the highly commended prize pool. This means that the highly commended story from each student division will receive a $20 voucher.
