Abstract
Four Decades of Promoting Literary Creativity Among Students in the Upper Grades of Primary School: The Roševi dnevi Literary Contest
This article presents Roševi dnevi (Roš Days), a nationwide literary contest for primary school students – primarily those in Years 8 and 9 – which has been promoting literary creativity and a culture of reading for 40 years. It outlines the history of the contest, named after the poet and writer Fran Roš. Initially organised on 12 June 1986 at the initiative of the local community and three primary schools, the contest later expanded to the Municipality of Celje, the Savinja region, and Slovenian Carinthia; in 2001, it expanded to the whole of Slovenia, and in 2006 to Slovenian communities in neighbouring countries. The article emphasises the importance of cooperation between the Fran Roš Primary School and the Public Fund of the Republic of Slovenia for Cultural Activities. It further describes the organisation of the contest, the work of the expert committee, and the organisation of a full-day gathering of young writers in Celje, featuring educational workshops led by distinguished Slovenian writers and experts, as well as the closing ceremony featuring the main event.
