Despite the challenges presented by Covid, the Stories on Stage competition organized by the EDB NET section was able to go ahead this year.  A total of 29 teams from 19 schools took part.  Although the competition was fierce and although the quality of all submitted work was fantastic, the team from Valtorta College was able to edge out their rivals and secure first place.  We congratulate the students on their victory and are sure they will use the book coupons they won to further strengthen their mastery of the English language.  Details of the eight shortlisted teams are below.
