We are passionate about supporting emerging writers on their learning journey.
The Penguin Random House Canada Student Award for Fiction is an endowed award 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. Established in 2002, this award is valued at $2,500, plus two finalist awards of $1,000 each annually.
A big congrats to this year’s finalists, who have impressed us with their talent, creativity and hard work. Winners and Honourable Mentions will be announced soon!
