Telford and Wrekin Art Competition for World Environment Day

Hi everyone! We hope you are all safe and well. We have received this message into school today from Telford and Wrekin Council and we’d love our school to get involved!

‘We’re celebrating World Environment Day this weekend with an art competition open to anyone under 11. We thought that due to the current circumstances in schools this might be the perfect opportunity to get the kids outside and thinking about the local area?

We want to see paintings, drawings, collages and tree rubbings! Whatever it is, it just needs to celebrate the abundance of nature and wildlife we have in the borough.

We would love to share the entries on our social media accounts too – so please let us know if that’s possible?

All entries will be in with a chance of winning a post lockdown guided tour of the beautiful Lightmoor Nature Reserve with their family.

The competition is open to children aged 11 and under, living in the borough.

Please send any artwork to us at mywildtelford@telford.gov.uk by the end of Monday 8 June.’

We have emailed all St George’s families this afternoon with a printable template for the competition which you might find helpful but you can use anything you like. If you do take part, please share your pictures with us too as well as sending it to the official entry email address above. Thank you.

Hello Year 6!

It has probably been quite a while since you have seen your friends and us! We thought that a great way for you to see each other is to send us a picture of yourself doing something that you enjoy or one of your favourite moments during lockdown. It could be a picture of yourself smiling, spending time with your pet, out for a walk, playing in the garden etc. πŸ–πŸ‘¦πŸ‘§πŸŒ³πŸΆπŸ±πŸŸπŸŒž

 

We would love to see you and what you have been up to. Please send us your pics to the year 6 email (year6team@stgeorgesschool.org.uk) for us to share on the website.

Look forward to seeing your lovely faces soon,

Year 6 Team 😊
