Dear lovely list members,
Please can you publicise this if you can? Maybe you have talented
offspring who wish to follow in your footsteps, or have an email list
for schools or teachers. We need more entries!
Thanks,
Kat
Calling all aspiring science writers! If you're aged 11-18 and want the
chance to prove your talents as a science communicator, then you should
enter Cancer Research UK's latest competition, the Science of Tomorrow.
Simply think about what science will be like in the year 2056, and write
700 words on what you imagine. Will all the laboratory work be done by
white-coated robots? Or will we all be dead from bird flu, or a more
sinister infection?
The competition will be judged by a prestigious panel, including Zoe
Salmon the Blue Peter presenter, and Tim Radford, ex-science editor at
The Guardian. There are some great prizes up for grabs, as well as the
chance to publicise your literary talents. Prizes will be awarded for
winners aged 11-14 and 15-18, and there are also regional awards.
To find out more, and to enter online, visit Cancer Research UK's
website www.scienceoftomorrow.org.uk But get your fingers moving fast,
because the deadine is April 28th. We're very sorry but the competition
is only open to children in the UK.
