Date of result release :  15 March 2022
Participant : P1 to P3 students
Registration fee : HKD 280 （including certificate, trophy & postage）  

Purpose of the contest:
Writing in English could be challenging.
Creating stories in English not only requires unrestrained creativity, but also a certain level of English foundation.
We encourage children to adopt English through this competition, being able to try and use different sentences, patterns and vocabulary in their writing; we also hope that children can be inspired by their surroundings and being able to express their own thoughts and emotions throughout the stories.
