“Writing Ku-ring-gai History” Competitions

Do you fancy yourself as a published writer? …or are you a budding historian?

Have you always wanted to write but never quite found the motivation?

Would you like to help us celebrate our 50th anniversary and win a prize?

Then, enter one of our competitions. 

There are five age categories, four for school students and one for adults. The topics focus on Ku-ring-gai history, buildings, events and/or families and there are great prizes.

The total prize pool is $2000.

The competitions close on Friday 3 May and will be judged by members of KHS and local authors.

Short-listed entries will be displayed in the Gordon Library and then published in a small booklet available later in the year. Yes, you could be published!

We hope this will encourage you all to discover the extensive resources of Ku-ring-gai Historical Society and in the process learn more about the wonderful community we live in.

Please go to our Society website for full details of the topics, to read the Terms and Conditions of the competition, and to download the entry form. There is no entry fee.

There are information flyers in our research rooms.

Don't forget to check our Calendar tab for other upcoming events.
