Writing Olympics Success!

Last Saturday, Gori held its 2nd annual Writing Olympics competition. It took place at the local university and the turnout was fantastic. We had 197 participants from grades 6-11th. Each grade level was given a list of 3-4 topics. From there, it was up to the student to select one and write for up to an hour about it. Students not only came from the various Gori schools but also from nearby villages. Writing Olympic competitions have been taking place all over Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan this past month. On Saturday, all the Georgian entries will be judged by PCVs. Winners will be selected for regional, national and best of caucasus awards for each grade level.
