Kumon UK host competition for children to win £400 for their favourite hobby!

To celebrate the launch of their new website, Kumon Educational UK is hosting an exclusive competition for children throughout May 2013. To enter, children aged five to 16 should visit kumon.co.uk/education-is and write up to 100 words about what education means to them. One lucky child from each age category (five to eight, nine to 12 and 13 to 16) will win £400 to put towards their favourite hobby.

Kumon offers maths and English study programmes for children of all ages and abilities. Through daily study, Kumon aims for each and every child to become an independent, advanced learner, with a positive attitude to study. In addition to developing academic ability, Kumon study fosters in students invaluable confidence and the mind-set and skills for self-learning, enabling them to realise their potential both at school and beyond.

Kumon hope the prize money will enable three lucky children to thrive in their chosen hobby and experience joy and success.

There are over 67,000 students experiencing success through the Kumon programmes across the UK, though this exciting competition is open to all children. Families not yet enrolled on a Kumon programme can take advantage of a Free Assessment at their local centre.
