National Writing Day Competition 2021 | WINNER!

We had an amazing response to our national writing day competition with entrants from up and down the country! From visits to the Queen to unicorn adventures (and lots of cake) via trips to Blackpool and Hollywood, each story was filled with gorgeous imagery, humour and heaps of imagination.

It was so difficult to pick a winner (and we wish we didn’t have to!) but after much pondering, we have decided that the first place prize of a 12 month subscription to Banjo Robinson, book and toy will go to Yaeli (age 7) for her colourful tale of Banjo’s Spanish beach holiday.

Special mentions go to runners up Ava (age 7), Chloe (age 5), Grace (age 7), Leya (age 5), Lyra (age 9), Willow (age 5) and Josie (age 12) for their brilliant writing too. Banjo was so impressed that he will be sending an exclusive Banjo Robinson poster to each of you also.

We believe that writing creatively can have a huge impact on kids – helping them with their communication skills, growing their self-confidence and supporting them as they learn to articulate their feelings.

It’s a huge pleasure to bring Banjo’s stories into your children’s lives – and absolutely wonderful to know that he inspires them to write their own!

Congrats to all involved – as Banjo says, stories really can take you anywhere!
