Creative Writing Competition 2025

To celebrate National Writing Day, an annual celebration of the power of writing creatively, we are offering all pupils that attend one of our member primary schools the chance to win a £15 book token that can be used during this year’s summer holidays.

Today we’re launching or #Summer challenge to WIN a book voucher. We want to inspire children of all ages and abilities to get writing. To enter, we want to know why your child loves our school lunches and what their favourite foods/dishes are on our menus and why? There will be two prizes, for two categories. One for KS1 and and one for KS2.

The competition is open to all primary aged children attending one of our member schools.

To enter, parents and carers can:

1. Send a photo of your child's creative writing piece ( via our e-mail address)

2. E-mail directly to our e-mail address

3. Send a postal entry to the address in our T's 7 C's

Closing Date is the last day of term 22 July at 5pm.

Please state if your child is in KS1 or KS2. The winners will be chosen and notified week commencing 28 July 2025.
