HAVE YOU GOT BRITAIN'S FUNNIEST CLASS?

ENTER OUR NATIONWIDE COMPETITION FOR PRIMARY SCHOOLS AND PROVE YOUR CLASS HAS THE ULTIMATE FUNNY BONE!



At Beano, we understand how important it is for kids to have a sense of belonging, just like Class 2B of The Bash Street School. To help teachers provide a space where every kid feels like they belong, we've created a free Bouncebackability lesson, with our good friends and partners at children's charity Place2Be. 'This is My Place' is a fun, free, mental wellbeing resource for the classroom, helping children celebrate what makes them unique, by connecting through sharing things that make them laugh and feel comfortable in a safe environment with their peers.


Let the phenomenally funny and mega-mishievous competition begin!


In this year’s competition, you and your classroom can win:

• A Beano illustration of the class with their teacher, which will be published in the Beano comic
• An appearance in the comic alongside The Bash Street Kids which will be published in Beano Issue 4340
• A 'Golden Gnasher' medal for every pupil in the class
• A one-year Beano subscription for every pupil in the class
• A Beano comic school subscription
• One copy of the Beano Joke Book for every pupil in the class
