Yorkshire Young Writer 2018 5.30 – 6.15 pm
As part of the Broughton Hall Children’s Literature Festival we will be working with over 200 schools. We are thrilled to invite all of these schools to enter their children into an exciting writing competition – Yorkshire Young Writer of the Year. There will be two categories – years 3 and 4 and one for years 5 and 6.
It is anticipated that over 40 000 children will take part.
We are delighted that Bradford Grammar School, the leading independent school in the north of England, is sponsoring this prestigious event and we are looking forward to seeing the very best in creative writing in our region.
Every school that enters will have at least one chosen winner and the lucky 200 winners will have their story published in a real book.
All chosen finalists will be invited to attend the Broughton Hall Festival on Saturday 29 or Sunday 30 September 2018 to find out who will be the overall winner. As part of the prize they will be invited to attend one of our top author shows. Following the show we will announce the top six entries. The top six stories will be read out by some of the leading children’s authors in the country before the overall winner is finally announced.
