BBC Radio 2 Writing Competition 500 Words

Do you get bored during the school holidays?



Are you eager to learn more?



Are you hungry for a challenge?

See if you can write a story in 500 words. It can be a story about anything you like, love, comedy, horror or mystery, it’s completely up to you, the only rule is that you use 500 words. Not 499 or 501 just 500 words. This competition has been launched by Chris Evans at BBC Radio 2. There are lots of reasons to enter 500 words. You could win Chris Evans height in books (1.9 metres) or hear your story read by a superstar narrator live on the radio to millions of people. But the most important reason is to write a brilliant story. The judges want to read what you come up with, and they absolutely promise to read EVERY SINGLE ONE.

If you would like to enter this competition then return your entry to Mrs Nicholls on 24^th February.

Good Luck!
