The Rotary Club of The Hills-Kellyville Writing competition awards night will be held on Monday 10 August 2015.  The night is also combined with a School Principals night where we recognise the outstanding work being done by the principals in our local primary schools.
 
The aim of this project is to promote literacy in our schools and is part of our Rotary Youth encouragement program.  The format of the project is that Year 6 students from local schools are invited to write a piece in their own words on a nominated topic.  Each participating school then submits the three best entries and a panel of judges from the Rotary Club then selects the three major prizewinners.  Read on for full details and the flyer.
 
The project had its origins in 2005, when this Club launched it to celebrate Rotary International’s century of service with the theme “A century of service – a new century of success”.  This is the program’s 11th year and it has gone from strength to strength thanks to the support of the schools in the Kellyville, Baulkham Hills and Rouse Hill areas.
 
The evening will consist of presentation of awards and dinner and showcases some of the outstanding talent in our young people.
