Competition

We love stories! And we’re inviting you to make up your own, as part of the

Stepping Into Stories Kids’ Lit Fest 

​

The theme this year is 'ALL ABOARD!'

- whatever that means to you! 

 

A new departure? A journey of discovery? A daydream that takes you somewhere imaginary? A camel ride? A piggy back? Perhaps your story will feature an epic train journey? Or maybe it will be a story about how you are feeling as you travel through different situations? Or it could be about a journey through time and space! 

​

It can be funny, an adventure, fantasy - anything you like. 

If you're excited and what to be part of the competition, here's how to enter

All you have to do is create a story with the theme of 'All Aboard!'.
