Still time for wannabe writers to take a dramatic turn

This week Primary school children with a passion for the arts have the chance to win the top job at a major theatre for a day.

Primary schools are being urged to encourage entries for a creative writing competition that is out of this world. Whichever child pens the best piece of writing will have the chance to take the helm of the Hazlitt Theatre for a day.

But time is running out as entries must be received by this Friday, June 30.

The competition is run by the KM Charity Team which runs green travel and literacy schemes for schools. To enter, Primary school children must write about which superhero they would like to walk to school with and why.

Entries should be handwritten on an activity sheet called ‘To infinity and beyond’ and sent in the post to KM Charity Team, Gazette House, 58 Estuary View Business Park, Boorman Way, Whitstable Kent CT5 3SE, or scanned and emailed to Sarah Clyne at sclyne@thekmgroup.co.uk. Submissions will be judged on creativity, awareness of the benefits of green travel, and quality of handwriting.

The winner will enjoy a VIP behind the scenes look at the Hazlitt Theatre, Maidstone, from rehearsals to production and marketing meetings, and possibly even taking in a show.

To find out more, or download the activity sheet, go to the KM Writing Competition website

Schools signing up to the KM Charity Team’s walk to school schemes for the next academic year will receive an ‘early bird’ 20% discount when applying before the deadline of July 1. Visit the KM Walk to School website or contact Sarah Clyne at sclyne@thekmgroup.co.uk or call 08442 640291.
