Write a Book in a Day
0001-01-01
Welcome to Australia's most unique team writing competition
The annual Write a Book in a Day competition stretches creativity by challenging teams to write and illustrate a book in just 12 hours. Teamwork, resilience and creativity are the names of the game, but of course, there are some amazing prizes up for grabs too!
This fun challenge is the perfect activity for students in Years 5 – 12, as well as adult writing groups.
Teams are encouraged to fundraise during the competition, with entry fees and all money raised going directly to The Kids’ Cancer Project to support vital childhood cancer research. Every book submitted will also be made available for free to kids in hospitals around Australia.
Write a Book in a Day has been successfully running annually since 2002, during which time it has continued to grow and break fundraising records year on year.
“It’s wonderful to witness students working and creating together while raising money for an amazing cause.” - Julie S, teacher at St Andrew's Lutheran College
