Established in 2002, this award is valued at $2,500, plus two finalist awards of $1,000 each annually.
The Penguin Random House Canada Student Award for Fiction supports emerging writers on their learning journey! The competition for this endowed award is open to all learners who have taken a creative writing course at SCS in the previous year. These writers have taken a spark of an idea and transformed it into a piece of writing they (and we) are proud of.
Congratulations to these finalists, who have unleashed their creative potential! Winners and Honourable Mentions will be announced soon!
