Sitara’s Story’s – A creativity contest
What is Happiness?
A creativity contest
What is Sitara’s Story’s #whatishappiness campaign?
It is an initiative of SiTara’s Story’s to encourage everyone to explore their own mental wellbeing by taking part in a contest.
Let’s find the happy person within you
SiTara’s Story presents a contest that offers great prizes. Entrants are asked to write an essay or draw a picture to describe what is happiness to them. It might be about feelings or it might be acknowledging someone significant who makes the entrant happy.
What makes you happy? Ask yourself. A football match between Argentina vs Brasil, a lame joke by your friend, or a book you read when you were 15? Do you want to draw a picture of Ben and Holly?
To win the contest, all you need to do is to write up the best essay you can if you are 12 years old or more. If you are 5-12 years old, you need to draw a picture in an A4 paper and email to us. Be original and you can be in with a chance of winning.
Mums and dads are requested to encourage their children.
How to enter
All you have to do is write your story/draw a picture, then ‘like’ SiTara’s Story’s Facebook page. Once you’ve done that, send us an email with your essay/picture.
Please send your submissions to sitarasstory@yahoo.com.
Do you think you have what it takes?
Then get writing/drawing and let us know!
