2020 Book Week Writing Challenge Winners 1
During the first three weeks of this term, students were invited to compose a text to be judged for our Book Week Writing Competition. Students could create any informative text about a real or imagined creature.
All students at St Bernadette’s were given many opportunities in class to plan, draft and compose their texts. They conferenced with their class teachers, received feedback from their peers and teachers and produced their final entries to be judged by myself and our school librarian Mrs O’Brien.
We would like to thank all of the students for their hard work and creativity. Our job was not made easy as it was hard to choose a winner. It was evident that the students we did finally choose, had put in a huge amount of thought and effort into their texts. Congratulations to all the students on their winning entries.
