CHALLENGE

Children must complete 6 Creative Competitions from any of the categories (in their Age Group) then send them in to us.
All Challenge Entries must be sent together in the one envelope or as attachments on one email.

We will choose our favourite entry from the ones you send in, insert it into a beautiful Certificate and return it back to you.

Childen will also be sent a Link to open our Mystery Treasure Box learn what is inside.

SEND IN ANY COMBINATION OF 6 COMPETITIONS
 
2 Story + 2 Draw + 2 Colour     
1 Story + 4 Draw + 1 Colour
2 Story + 4 Colour

The idea is to challenge children who are really good at one particular category to expand and try another category.

Prizes will be sent out throughout the year.

Competitions close on 31st December, 2011

3. Please use spellcheck before submitting your story.  Adults may type the story for children who are unable to use a computer. 

I CAN DRAW       

1. All entries must be original and will need to include the correct picture symbols for their Age Group somewhere in the drawing.
2. Pencils, crayons, paint or texta are accepted mediums for drawing your picture. We will not accept pastels, chalk or charcoal. 

COLOUR  ME  IN     

1. You may use coloured pencils, crayons or texta. 
2. Children are free to express themselves using whatever colours they choose. There is no set colour for any particular item.  

ADULTS

Children who are too young to use the computer properly may either dictate or write down on paper their story so that their 'adult' can enter the competition for them.  However, adults please try to submit the story as given to you, without making any changes that you feel might need to be made, as originality will be taken into consideration as well as story content.

Encourage your child to do as much as they can before you actually become involved or alternatively sit by them silently for support and only give input when absolutely necessary.
