Bronte Big Eagle won this year’s Saskatchewan Indigenous Cultural Centre short story writing contest

Nov 22, 2017

Smiling faces could be seen across the entire ballroom of the Saskatoon Inn Wednesday as 10-year-old Bronte Big Eagle read his winning story out loud.

Big Eagle’s reading was part of the 12th annual First Nations Language Keepers Conference organized by the Saskatchewan Indigenous Cultural Centre (SICC).

Since 2011, the conference has recognized young storytellers by having a writing contest. The educational catch is, the story has to be written in the student’s own Indigenous language.
