What does 'Our Tomorrow' entail?

Storytellers can explore whatever themes are important to them, be that family, climate, inclusion, technology, space exploration or beyond…

This year children's entries include:

a personal letter to their 100-year-old self
writing a rap about what their town might look like in twenty years’ time
re-imagining a classic tale with a sci-fi-style makeover
any of the other brilliant and creative ideas your children came up with!

Whether it’s fiction, non-fiction or poems – written entries, videos or recordings, we encouraged children and young people to unleash their fortune-telling skills, cast their minds ahead to the future and produce their own reflections on what it might hold.
