Our Year 6 writers have been weaving some wonderfully eerie tales as part of a gothic writing competition run by our feeder high school, Holy Cross. The challenge was to create spine-tingling stories filled with mystery, suspense, and a touch of the supernatural – and our pupils certainly delivered! We were absolutely delighted that Evie was crowned the overall winner of the competition! Her chillingly brilliant story impressed the judges, earning her a book and a delicious Easter egg as her prize. It was a double celebration for Evie, who also recently won the poetry competition at the ‘What’s Your Story, Chorley?’ reading festival. What an incredible achievement – two competitions, two wins! Well done to all of Year 6 for their fantastic efforts. Who knows? We might just have the next great gothic novelist in our midst!
