Paddlesteamers Colouring Competition

 

This year, two of Echuca’s special Paddlesteamers are turning 100 (PS Alexander Arbuthnot - Echuca Paddle Steamers) and 110 (PS Canberra - Murray River Paddlesteamers).

 

The Port of Echuca is organising a celebration weekend on the 23/24th of September during the holidays with activities in the Port. 

 

We are calling it Twin Towns, Twin Rivers, Twice the Celebration! 

 

We are running a colouring, story or artwork competition to celebrate, the colouring sheets and creative prompts are attached. 

 

We hope your school students may like to become involved and colour, draw or write based on the themes attached. 

 

Entries close on September 15th.

Echuca Moama Show November 11th and 12th

We are very excited that the Echuca/Moama show is returning this year on the weekend of November 11th and 12th. 

The Colouring Competition is for all primary schools in the region and include our local early years services too and Out of School Hours providers too. 

 

We will have two designs to pick from and we encourage your students to be as creative as they want on either.

 

Entries can be completed at home or at school. They will be picked up from your school  September 11th, before the school holidays. This is a great way to promote a great community event that targets our local families. 

 

Show passes will be awarded as prizes for our winning entries. All entries will be displayed at the Show.
