Droitwich Arts Network Sponsors High School Creative Writing Competition
For the last seven years Droitwich Arts Network has sponsored the Annual Creative Writing Competition at Droitwich High School. Karen Moore, a retired Deputy Headteacher at the school, initiated this competition in 2019. Droitwich Arts Network member and ex Chair of DAN, Helen Karakashian worked with Karen Moore and others, for a number of years, to judge the competition.
Droitwich Arts Network sponsors the competition by awarding £100 to the winner each year. Karen Moore provided an elegant glass trophy which is awarded to the winner. This year DAN member Jane Dix worked with staff at the school and the judges. The theme was “The Long Game”. An early task is to ensure that there are sufficient entries of a high enough standard. The judges, including Jane, selected the top three entries.
The photos show Rhys Jones (current DAN Chair) and Jane Dix handing over a cheque for £100 to the winner Olivia Russell, and Karen Moore and Jane with the authors of the top three entries.
