In December 2023, the German section of the MLTC called all learners of German to take part in a writing competition. The task was to write a warm or wild, wonderful or wishful winter story in German: Ein Wintermärchen - A Winter’s Tale. The competition was open to students of all levels. The only rule was that it had to be no longer than 555 words. The winner in each category was rewarded with a book token worth £25.
We received truly wonderful and heart-warming stories, and we would love to thank all participants for sharing their creative texts with us!
