Düsseldorf's Parks Department Lauds Top Student Newspapers

The Rhine region and the federal states of Germany are hosting school newspaper competitions this year, each with its own set of rules and registration process. The competitions aim to find the most talented young journalists in the region and offer prizes worth a total of 12,000 euros.

In the Rhine region, the 44th edition of the school newspaper competition is being hosted by the Rhine region's savings banks. The competition is open to students from all schools, including primary schools, special needs schools, and online newspapers. The winners in each category will represent North Rhine-Westphalia at the federal level. A jury composed of university professors and experienced journalists will determine the winners.

The competition is divided into four categories: "Classes 5 to 13", "Primary Schools", "Special Needs Schools", and "Online Newspapers". Entries for regularly published school newspapers must be submitted by February 7, 2025. Special prizes will be awarded for particularly successful ideas, such as outstanding focus topics or exceptional layout.

Meanwhile, the federal states' school newspaper competition is the next stage after the Rhine region's competition. The competition is not organized by the Düsseldorf City Savings Bank and ten local daily newspapers, but rather by an unknown organizer. The competition rules and registration form can be found at https://example.com.

The winners in the "Classes 5 to 13" category will receive a prize of their choice worth 2,000 euros. The competition may have its own prize structure different from the Rhine region's competition. The winners from the federal states' school newspaper competition will represent their respective states, not just North Rhine-Westphalia, at the national level.

It's important to note that the deadline for entries in the federal states' school newspaper competition is not specified in the given text. The competition may have its own jury, different from the one composed of university professors and experienced journalists in the Rhine region's competition.

Overall, both competitions offer a great opportunity for young journalists to showcase their talents and win prizes. So, get your pens and keyboards ready and start writing!
