Krishna Highly Commended for Fictional Writing in National Competition
Last autumn Krishna, MTBS student, entered a national competition for writing historical fiction and earlier this year, was informed he had made the shortlist of 35. In the final judging he has been awarded Highly Commended and his story will be 1 of 9 stories printed in the 2017 Young Walter Scott Anthology.
His story, ‘Crossing the Line’, was set in India 1947 during the time India was partitioned into India and Pakistan as last year marked the 70th anniversary of partition and he has ancestors who were caught up in it. He watched the BBC documentaries, saw the play ‘Child of the Divide’ and looked through his grandmother’s refugee documents which all contributed to his background knowledge of the setting.
We as a School and Krishna’s parents are very proud of him and extremely pleased his story has earned him a Highly Commended.
Well done Krishna!
