The students at Durack campus took part in the annual writing competition this year. Masha Allah – we had many wonderful entries and the English department would like to congratulate all the students who submitted their entries in 2014. There were a lot of creative stories and poems to choose from and the decision making process was not easy, but in the end, tough choices had to be made.
The winners of our school writing competition are as follows:

Our college also participated in the Write 4 Fun competition in 2014. This competition is held nationwide and entices would-be authors with some fabulous prizes. This served as a great source of motivation for students to put pen to paper. Out of 12 000 entries nationwide, 10 of our school’s entries made it into the second round of judging. This in itself is an achievement and one to be proud of. Insha Allah, there is no telling what we can achieve next year. Congratulations once again to all those students who entered and for having a go!
