Earlier this year we launched our Tween Xstream Write A Story competition, and we received entries from all across South Africa.
We are proud to announce this year’s winners.
1ST PLACE
Ricus Jansen van Vuuren
Grade 7 from Laerskool Mooirivier
The squire was a man of high social standing and lived outside Lan-Tundra and was the commander and chief of the king’s legion. He is the only person holding the key to the queen’s disappearance. Will he, or someone else, be able to save her, or will she be trapped forever?
The Tale of Lan-Thundra
2ND PLACE
Genevieve Liebenberg
Grade 7 from Laerskool Voorpos
Chess pieces from long ago – are no ordinary pieces. They come alive. After many years they were left in the attic by its owner – a teenage boy who only plays electronic games now. The pieces decided to also become digital and fight a different type of war.

3RD PLACE
Pieter Kruger
Grade 7 from Laerskool Mooirivier
Whilst busy with a treasure hunt, Peter Kasceu comes across a mysterious find from outers space. Will this find be friend or foe?
The Last Doxarian
Congratulations to all our winners and thank you to everyone who participated. The stories we received was fantastic and we definitely think that this competition should be an annual occurrence.
The first prize includes turning the story into an animated short film. We will start production on Ricus’ story early 2023. We can’t wait to share the final short film with everyone.
