Grade Five/Six Writing Contest Winners by Margaret Saull - Thursday, Apr 15, 2010 at 4:42pm

The winners of the Grades Five & Six writing contest have been chosen. This year's subject was "All Creatures Great and Small". Once again this contest was a great success, with 48 entries submitted and 5 winners decided upon. We would like to thank all the authors for their creative and enthusiastic animal stories. It was a pleasure to read all of these original works and difficult to choose only five.

I wonder what our theme should be next year...

And the winners are..
