We are very pleased with the great response for the first year of the Willand Art Competition.
Willand School supplied a whole paintbox full of enthusiasm for this competition. A beautiful display of art with the theme of Summer is on show on their fence bordering the main road near the pedestrian crossing. The young artists have used different subjects and techniques to create art of high quality.
This high quality from Willand School gave the judges a headache; they could not decide on one winner. We have awarded a group Winner prize to the whole school. A variety of prizes will be drawn by the students.
