Photography competition
Updated: Wednesday 31st March 2021
Whilst in lockdown pupils were set a challenge of capturing nature in their local area. We received nearly a hundred entries which made the job of picking the best from each house a very hard task. The winning picture from each house was then voted on by staff to pick the overall winner. Winners were George Sparshott (Stuart) Jessica Lavender (Tudor) Lily Compton (Doulton) and Violet Foster (Webb). The voting was very close with Violet Foster being crowned as the overall winner. Each runner up received a £10 voucher and the winner a £20 voucher. Well done to all who entered, also special mention to Miss Timothy who won the staff photography competition.
Mr Hope, Head of Stuart House
