Wild at Art Competition
Wow! A big THANK YOU to all the amazing artists who have entered our ASPS Wild at Art competition. I’m sure you can agree that the artworks look outstanding. It has been inspiring to see the deep care and concern that these young artists have for our vanishing wild life. These beautiful pieces will be on display in our main building foyer until Wednesday 30th August so please come on in to admire them. The winners for each category (prep, 1-2, 3-4 and 5-6) will be announced on Wednesday 30th August. It is certainly going to be hard to choose.
