'Hye Etch' Armenian Poetry Competition Winners (2002) Introduction Early in September 2002, 'Hye Etch' approached the three main Armenian schools (AGBU Alexander Primary School, Hamazkaine A. & S. Galstaun School and St. Gregory's Armenian School) in Sydney Australia to take part in a unique Armenian poetry competition. The aim of the competition was to offer encouragement to the students and give them a sense of pride in their mother language – Armenian. To our disappointment, two out of the three schools (Hamazkaine A. & S. Galstaun and St. Gregory's Armenian) did not partake in the competition, to the detriment of their students. Only the students at the AGBU Alexander Primary school successfully accomplished the task at hand with flying colours. The subject of the poetry competition was "The Armenian Language" or "The Armenian Alphabet". Entries had to be written or typed in Armenian and submitted by mid December 2002. Five winners were chosen by the teachers at AGBU Primary. 'Hye Etch' then selected the 1st place winner. Each of the five students received a complimentary copy of the Armenian Alphabet poster. The 1st place winner received in addition to the poster, a copy of the new 2003 'Hye Etch' Armenian calendar. 'Hye Etch' wishes to congratulate the winning students for their enthusiasm and commendable work. We also extend our thanks to the dedicated and friendly staff at the AGBU Alexander Primary school for encouraging student participation. The high standard of work achieved is a credit to both the teachers and students at AGBU Primary. The winning poems are listed below with the names of the students. It is worth mentioning that all of the entries were of very high standard. The 1st place winning poem was selected for its simplicity and for the important message it conveys to the young generation, 'to preserve this great language'.
