Deadline for kids to submit writing falls Jan. 20, 2016
Nunavut’s Representative for Children and Youth is inviting young people to submit their writing to a contest in celebration of National Child Day, held Nov. 20.
The contest, dubbed “Your, Story, Your Voice,” asks children from kindergarten to Grade 12 to write a few words on “the right to your culture,” in recognition of the United Nations’ Convention on the Rights of the Child.
National Child Day commemorates the adoption in 1989 of the UN’s Convention on the Rights of the Child.
