Youth Awards in Literature winners
Mosman Library Service is pleased to announce the winners of this Year’s Mosman Youth Awards in Literature. The Presentation Evening announcing the winners for 2022 was held on Wednesday 31 August in Barry O'Keefe Library. The competition, which is in its 30th year, attracted 306 entries from students at local schools and other schools across Sydney. The presentation event was well attended with over 160 people present including short-listed entrants and their families, teachers, competition judges and Mosman Councillors including the Mayor, Carolyn Corrigan. The judges commented on the very high standard of this year’s entries, the breadth of topics, the fact that many entrants had heeded the writing advice given in previous years from the judges and that it showed in the finished product.
This year’s awards were sponsored by the Rotary Club of Mosman, Lions Club of Mosman, Constant Reader Bookshop, Oracle Books Mosman and Northern Beaches & Mosman College. The total amount awarded for prizes was $2,500.
