Objectives of the Competition

  • The competition aims to give participants an opportunity to express themselves through storytelling, as inspired by the sounds that are readily accessible in children's daily lives.

Theme of the Competition

  • With the theme of "Sound Story of Children", participants have to write a story about personal growth or feelings.

Form of the Competition

  • Participants are required to select one out of the three audio files provided by the Commission as a lead-in to write a story about personal growth or feelings either in Chinese or English.
  • There is no need to specifically mention in the article any or all of the sounds preset in the audio file. Participants could use their imaginations to write the story based on their associations or feelings on the sound heard.
