The Final Chapter

It's the end of an era, Write4fun is officially ceasing our student writing competitions and anthology publications in 2024.
From 1997 to 2023 Write4fun encouraged young student writers and artists with fantastic competitions, by publishing top quality books and conducting interactive, fun workshops across Australia. Hundreds of thousands of kids shared their poems, short stories and artwork with us and other students around the world.

After more than 26 years of having the honour and pleasure of reading so many young Aussie student pieces, we are very sad to be saying goodbye. We truly hope Write4fun has inspired, supported, motivated… sparked interest, confidence, pride and excitement… entertained and maybe even made a small positive impact in a few of these amazing kids’ lives over the years. Thank you to the students, teachers and parents, our judges, printers and amazing staff. Thank you to you all. We have loved it. Keep writing and reading!

The End.

The Write4fun Team, January 2024
