The Sound Kitchen essay contests

It’s not just the quiz which wins you a prize! If you enter an essay contest, you'll receive a premium prize!Here are the topics:

“This I Believe”: Write an essay about the principles that guide your life, what you have found to be true from your very own personal experience.

“My ‘Ordinary’ Hero": Write an essay about your un-sung hero – an “ordinary” person doing extraordinary things. The world is full of people who are quietly working to make the world a better place, in whatever way they can – it’s the nurse, the teacher, the mother.

You can also win a prize if you write in about your most memorable moment, or your proudest achievement.
