This is the third year that we have organised this Art competition which is open to all the Junior schools in Radcliffe / Bingham / Cotgrave and the villages in the Vale.

The theme this year wasEarth, Sea or Sky with prizes being awarded to the winners in each of two categories ie  Key stage years 3 / 4 and years 5 / 6,  as well as the winning school receiving a donation to their Art department. Additionally this year a winner in each of the categories was chosen from the Artwork submitted by each of the participating schools and from which the winning entries were chosen. Six schools took part with 159 entries and again standards were high.
