NHPTV Kids Writer's Contest

The NHPTV Writers Contest is happening right now and is open to all students grades K-5! This is a great opportunity for students to share their writing from school or to share a new story they've written at home. Second grade stories are required to be somewhere between 100-350 words and can be fiction, non-fiction, or in the form of a poem. A full list of rules can be found here

Several giraffe students have participated in this contest in the past, and they have all been so excited to share their work with others! If you wish to enter, please print out an entry form and submit your story by Friday, March 31st. Good luck, and happy writing!

Hello, Giraffe Families!

There is going to be a very familiar place featured on TV tonight: tune in to NHPTV tonight at 8 pm to watch Our Hometown: Stratham. Click on the picture below to see a preview of tonight's episode!

Congratulations!

One of our very own giraffes took the courage to enter the NHPTV Writers Contest and received an Outstanding Achievement Award for her poem "I Am Thankful". We are so proud of your bravery to put your work out there, Marie! Way to go! 

Marie's sister also received an Outstanding Achievement Award for her her poem "Peace" 

Great job, Meaghan! 

NHPTV Writers Contest

Hello and Happy New Year's Eve, Giraffes! I wanted to tell you about writing contest that begins tomorrow. NHPTV is holding its annual Writers Contest, and students in grades K-5 can submit stories they've written and illustrated between January 1st and March 31st. Once all of the stories are submitted, judges will select a first, second, and third place winner at each grade level. Some stories will also be selected for honorable mention. It is completely up to you if you'd like to enter--I know many of you like to write and illustrate, and I would love for you to enter a story so you can share your talent with others! It can be a story from class or a story you've written at home. Stories submitted by second graders can be true, fictional, or you could even submit a poem. All writing should be between 100 and 350 words. More guidelines can be found on their Entry Form!

Best of luck, my talented authors and illustrators! I will see you on Monday :)
