A school holiday competition for kids who love to write and draw!
Kiwi North is holding a special storytelling competition from Monday 15 April to Friday 26 April.
We encourage school-age children and teens to visit the museum’s Life And Tides exhibition, and use it as an inspiration for their short story, or their visual-story - and there’s a lot to be inspired about, from life-like recreations of little blue penguins, mako sharks, conger eels, enormous swordfish and so much more!!
Maybe you will write your story about the sailfish, who wasn’t meant to be in New Zealand waters? Or you might be inspired to write about the moonfish, who adapted its body temperature millions of years ago so that it could withstand colder waters, only to find that the ocean is heating up! Then again, you may wish to make a mini-magazine (zine) and draw the epic battle between the swordfish and the seal shark! Let your imagination guide you to your very own original story.
Age ranges include three categories: 5-9yrs, 10-14 yrs & 15-18 yrs.
Prizes: The winner in each category will win a Kiwi North Family Membership.
