The global competition “Zhivaya Klassika” is about bringing the Russian speaking children together finding a common theme that unites them and this is the Russian language and literature. The competition is scaled to 80 countries with about 2.5 million children taking part in it annually.

The “Zhivaya Klassika” competition has become an established tradition in Melbourne.

Young readers from 10 to 17 years old from across the state of Victoria present to the audience their favourite images from Russian classical and modern literature. And the competition has been inevitably turning into a real celebration of the meeting with Russian literature for many years now.

We are pleased to announce that the competition will take place on Sunday, March 26 at 13.00 (approximate time) at the premises of the Russian Charitable Society in Dandenong.
