|May 09, 2025
Children between the ages of 9 and 13 can explore their storytelling talent and imagination through the City of Cape Town’s annual writing competition, hosted by the City’s libraries.
The winners will be announced at the Open Book Festival later this year.
In 2024, the competition focused on environmental awareness and attracted 100 entries from young writers.
The City’s library and information services have decided to hold the competition again after its success.
Primary schools, book clubs and children within the age group are encouraged to enter, with entries for the competition opening on Monday May 5 and closing on Friday August 8.
