There is still time to enter this year’s Green Pencil Award.
The theme is Scotland’s weather! Whether it’s a story about a magical mist rolling through the Highlands, a poem capturing the drama of a stormy seaside, or a sunny adventure (rare as that may be!), we want to hear how Scotland’s ever-changing skies inspire you.
Come along and browse Drumbrae Library’s display for inspiration!
Open to Primary 4 to S3 students
Entries can be poetry, prose or story, all we ask is that the writing is the author’s own work and is no longer than one side of A4 paper.
The competition started on 1 October and the closing date is 28 November 2025.
