What are your words worth?
Enter the 2008 Australian Catholics Young Journalist Award for the chance to get published and win prizes for you and your school.
 Australian Catholics is calling on students from Catholic schools around Australia to tell us about what’s important to them.
Are you passionate about an issue such as homelessness, drug abuse, global poverty or refugees? Do you know someone with an inspiring story to share? By doing some research, conducting an interview, and writing a story – you can help make a difference.
This year’s award is going to be bigger than ever before. We’re opening it up to students in both primary and secondary schools, giving out prizes for the best articles in three sections:
Winner Runner-up
12 and under $200 $100
13 to 15 $300 $150
16 and over $400 $200
The winning schools from each section will also win $500 each.
Learn more about the media and how your words can make a difference. Entries close 4 July 2008. Winning stories will be published in the Spring 2008 edition of Australian Catholics.
