Louise D’Costa and Rosalind Brookman (one of our reporters for The Caterham and district independent ) went to visit the winner of our ‘Festive Writing Competition’ last month. We were extremely impressed with Akash’s entry and we met him at his school to present him with his certificate and prizes.

Akash is just 8 years old and we really enjoyed reading his story.

One of his prizes was to record his own podcast recording of his festive story. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we have and please look out for his story in print  in the January issue of the paper.
