STORYFEST WRITING COMPETITION


2020 WINNERS ANNOUNCED

CASH PRIZES

$500 First prize
$250 Runner up
$150 Third prize
$100 Highly Commended

We are thrilled to announce the winners of the 2020 Platform x Central Geelong Marketing Storyfest Competition. This year, we asked young writers to tell their stories of social connection.

It was tough to choose only a few winners from all the wonderful applications we received. In recognition of some outstanding entries that didn't quite secure a place, we also included two 'Highly Commended' awards for each age group.

Congratulations to the finalists in each category:

8 - 12 years old:

First Place ($500): Thomas Taylor, Rap of Isolation

Second Place ($250): Shosana Thomas, Rolly

Third Place ($150): Harry McDonough, The Story of Jimmy and Bob

Highly Commended ($100 each): Madison Rafter and Jack Burgess

13 - 18 years old:

First Place ($500): Naomi Chang, Mirror Girl

Second Place ($250): Hayley Hunt, A Sparrow in the Castle

Third Place ($150): Jordan Matchan, Friend Next Door

Highly Commended ($100 each): Zoe Taylor and Aliya Ahmadi
