Notice Writing Topics: 60 Topics with Titles for Practice

Notice writing topics in school exams fall into a few groups: school events, competitions, lost and found, clubs and camps, health and safety drives, and society or office announcements. Each topic needs a short, clear title in capital letters, such as “INTER-HOUSE QUIZ” or “LOST: BLUE WATER BOTTLE”. Practise at least two topics from each group, and write every notice in a box with the institution’s name, the word NOTICE, the date, a title, a body of about 50 words and your name and designation.

Below you will find 60 practice topics with ready titles, four solved notices and tips on writing a heading that earns marks.

Key Takeaways

• Group your practice by type: events, competitions, lost and found, clubs, drives and society notices.
• Keep titles short, in capitals, and specific: “BLOOD DONATION CAMP”, not “IMPORTANT NOTICE”.
• Every body must answer what, when, where, who can join and whom to contact.
• CBSE Class 12 notices are up to 50 words and carry 4 marks.
• Time yourself: aim for about 8 minutes per notice.

How to Write a Good Title

A good title is four to six words long. Moreover, it should make sense on its own, because readers scan notice boards quickly.

Tips for Every Topic

• Draw the box first. It is part of the expected format.
• Use the passive or third person. “Students are informed that…” reads better than “I want to tell you”.
• Answer the five questions. What, when, where, who and whom to contact.
• Keep it close to 50 words. Cut adjectives before you cut facts.
• Sign with a designation. Use the one given in the question.
