Friday 2nd July at 10am, the children in Years 3 and 5 joined the Writing Awards’ Ceremony to listen to author Kamila Shamsie and the judges comments about our very own county Commended Winners William (Year 5) and Scarlett (Year 3). All schools who participated in the competition, (and those who didn’t but would be interested for another time) along with the parents/ carers of all commended winners were warmly invited to attend. Judges of all levels were also invited to attend (including Mrs Dutton), as were sponsors. 

The event was be hosted by Manchester University and we loved hearing Kamila Shamsie's (author) thoughts about some of the writing.

Prizes were be presented and some of the pieces will be shared. The prizes include kindles for the winners of each year group and a £300 library prize for the school of the overall winner.
