Congratulations to the multi-talented musician and Europa alumni, Max Blansjaar, on winning the Goldsmith’s Young Writer competition 2021.

Max studied at Europa School UK and completed his baccalaureate in the summer of 2021. He is now an undergraduate at Oxford University.
Max was presented with his prize and £1000 at the prize ceremony at Goldsmiths University.
Max thanked his teacher, Mrs Powell, who encouraged him to enter the competition, saying, “Thanks so much for that! If you hadn’t made me aware of the opportunity, I definitely wouldn’t have entered.”
