COMPETITION
Do you know somewhere unforgettable?
And can you describe it in only 500 words? We’re holding a creative writing
competition and want to read about your unforgettable place. It can be real or
imaginary, it can be somewhere you’ve been or perhaps somewhere you’ve
always wanted to go.
You can include something that happened there, or someone you met. Most
importantly, your writing should create a picture of your unforgettable place in the
reader’s mind.
Check with your school about how to enter. They will be choosing the five best
primary entries to submit to our international final. Winners of this will be
published in the Global Classroom 2015 creative writing book which
will be shared around the world.
Your projects to Make it Right
Wow! Haven’t you all been busy trying to Make it Right?
In response to every child has a ‘right to a childhood’, students from The British
International School Bratislava have been working hard to raise funds to
create a therapeutic playroom in a local hospital. What a difference that could
make to so many children.
Students from The British School of Guangzhou took over the Student Zone
in December to share with us all of the research they discovered when doing
their challenge week. They learnt about issues all over the world and shared it
with the whole school. You have until 6 March 2015 to complete your projects
– good luck!
