Hello everyone!
When you were in school did you ever have to "Write a letter to your friend describing your summer vacations" or how about about "Write a letter to your friend stating the importance of play and hard work". I used to cringe when I had to come up with these and feel mildly nauseous when after all these years my son has to write on the same topics.
If you think your child has a way with words and would enjoy thinking and writing out of the box, the CREATIVE WRITING COMPETITION at Gulmohar Days is the place to be!

Time: 10.00 am to 1.00 pm
