A creative talent for writing has led to Alan Vaarwerk gaining a national short story award.

Alan, a Year 8 student at Grafton High School, came second out of 5000 entries in the Write4fun superhero and superstar-themed short story competition. The humorous story about a retired superhero, George, won Alan $250 and the honour of having his work published, with other competition entries, in the book 'Believe It Or Not!'.

An award of commendation was also presented to the school.
