Louis the Frog Launches a Writing Competition for Schools

Louis the Frog is the mascot of his own website www.SpottyGreenFrog.co.uk. He has launched a story writing competition for children.

Prizes for the schools are 4 prizes of £100 to spend on the Spotty Green Frog website plus runners up prizes of £25 (also to spend on the website). The children who win the prizes for their schools will receive individual prizes as well relating to gardening and the outdoors.

Launching his competition, Louis said,

“I’m Louis the Frog and I’m inviting boys and girls across the country to write a story about me. Shouldn’t be too hard – I’m a rather interesting frog with lots of lovely friends! There are different types of stories depending on your age and, if you are too young for school, you can just draw a picture and send that to me instead. If yours is one of the best stories, you will win a prize for yourself and for your school.”

There are also prizes for handwriting and illustrations.

Louis has been careful to launch the competition with plenty of time for children to enter before the closing date of 31 March 2012.

There are also special prizes. Each school or nursery which sends in 10 or more entries in a batch before 20 January 2012 will receive a special “Early Bird” gifts.

For the children who are at school, the topics for the story are:

• Reception – Year 1 – Louis the Frog has an Adventure
• Years 2 – 3 – Louis the Frog Plays a Joke
• Years 4 – 6 – Louis the Frog – a Mystery Story

Louis plans to put the stories up on his website. He would also like his assistant, Laura from Customer Service to read the stories to create a video for YouTube so that everyone can enjoy the stories.

For children at day nurseries, Louis is asking them to draw a picture of him to put up on the websites saying “What could be better? An art gallery full of frogs!”

MD Caroline Blatchford said, “We are looking forward to reading the stories. Louis will be tickled pink to have all of these stories written about him. We hope that the children who enter will enjoy writing a story to share.”
