'My Favourite Places and Spaces'
As part of this year’s International Dylan Thomas Day, which is celebrated on 14 May each year, DylanED is inviting primary schools to take part in a very special competition.
The competition, which is entitled ‘My Favourite Places and Spaces,’ is based around Reminiscences of Childhood - Dylan Thomas’ classic recollection of the sights and sounds of his childhood.
Following in the footsteps of Swansea’s foremost writer and storyteller, the competition will look for pupils aged 8-11 to submit a short story (100 words), poem or picture of their own favourite places and spaces.
The overall winner will receive a goody bag. Selected entries will feature in an online exhibition in celebration of 'Dylan Day.'
Entries should be submitted electronically by Monday 27 April 2026 to cultural-institute@swansea.ac.uk with the title ‘My Favourite Places and Spaces.’
*All entries must be submitted via the child's teacher / school.
