CERTIFICATES OF PARTICIPATION
Students joining a competition like 'From Player to Page' often do so because they have a true passion for video games.
When that passion is combined with impressive writing skills, it opens up a whole world of new opportunities.
However, not everyone can be a winner. So to recognise the enthusiasm of all participants, a gold digital certificate of participation will be delivered to everyone who enters!
