Homeschoolers, It’s Your Turn!
Examiner.com is hosting a contest for homeschool graduates and for the parents of homeschoolers, in which participants have the opportunity to win tickets to the premiere of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. Entrants need to write a 200 word essay explaining who their favourite Narnian character is (as well as why). The essay must also include the reason why you think you should win the grand prize. Full rules and deadlines can be found by clicking here.
Thanks to Narnianerd for the head’s up!
Aw man! I'm a homeschooler, but I haven't graduated from it! 🙁
Oh well! I still love that homeschooler graduates and homeschooling parents can win tickets to the premiere! 😀
Wow, I'm homeschool graduate! For once this applies to me! But…I just don't have the guts to write an essay explaining my favorite character and why I should win a grand prize. I just don't. And I dislike writing essays. Sooo…good luck to anyone who enters!
I'm a homeschool graduate!! YES I am SOOO entering this!! 😀
I'm a homeschool graduate, and I'd enter but I don't think my dad would be too pleased if I went over to London! I just barely turned 18!
*WOOT!* Homeschoolers are FINALLY being recongnized! <3 <3 <3
Unfortunately I can't enter, but my older sister can.
Same here…
Oh well, homeschool rocks!
Congrats homeschoolers! To bad I went to a public school 😛
ditto! homeschool is awsome! But the link to the contest only puts you to an article which directs you to the already going focus on the family contest….that's a little weird.
Too bad I am not a graduate. I would LOVE to have been able to enter. Good luck of of ya'll who participate. 🙂
Aaaw! I'm a homeschool graduate, but I'm not 18 yet, so I can't enter :*(
You know what's odd about this? The Examiner.com writer says the contest is FocusonChristmas from Focus on the Family! I didn't know that contest was open to homeschoolers but I guess it is. So this isn't really news…
I just started in a public High School for grade 10….
I was homeschooled before.
Rats. IT's the Focus on the Family contest. I already entered it! 🙂
I'M HOMESCHOOLED!!!!!!!!!!! but i'm a freshman in high school……………………………. I CAN ASK MY MOM!!!
Actually the examiner got it wrong- this is the Focus on the Family contest and it's open to anyone, not just homeschoolers or homeschool graduates. As long as you're over 18 you can enter. Plus it isn't a 200 word essay (as for a homeschooler that would be awfully short) it's UP TO 200 words. Like 220 and Lily said, there really isn't any news.

I'm a homeschool graduate and was almost tempted to consider doing this. lol
My nine year old brother came to me and said "Their having a contest for homeschoolers to go to London!" and I got all excited and everything. But…then I read it for myself and found out you have to be a graduate. BUMMER!
GAAAAAAAH!!!!! I'm STILL not eligible!!!! *bangs head on desk* Wait….my sisters are….doubt any of them would want to write a 200 word essay…hm….
Wait!
Are you Eric Novak from AIR ONE?? Best radio station ever…
Ugh, me too! I wanna graduate NOW! 😛
Well, whatever, at least other people will benefit from it. I just hope they take lots and lots and lots of pictures for us unfortunate people to see. XD
Yes! Homeschooling is great! But, I'm not a graduate… Maybe I'll have graduated by the time The Last Battle comes out :)!
I'm a homeschooler, too!
When is there going to be a contest for us teenager Narnia fans? We like Narnia, too!!!
Is this for ANYWHERE?????
Never mind, apprently not =P Oh well, yay for the homeschoolers!!!
grrr.. I'm a homeschooler, not a grad, but i could ask my parents. One drawback, i don't live in USA!! 🙁

Nope, wrong Eric Novak.
Oh I wish I graduated… I'm homeschooling but since I'm still in school it dosent help if I'm not graduated yet.
I agree!
I'm a homeschooler, but still only in grade 11.
That's interesting how it is advertising the Focus on the Family contest….hmmm….. I didn't know that there were so many homeschoolers on here! I'm a homeschooler as well! 🙂
