| On the 4th and 5th June,
four primary schools in the local area participated in the first Children's
Art Show organised by Strathdon Community. Beautiful artworks
were on display in the John T. Reid Hall at the Community Centre.
The participating schools were: Burwood
Heights Primary School, Parkmore
Primary School, Vermont
Primary School and Weeden
Heights Primary School. A prize of a bicycle was awarded to each child for the most outstanding work in two categories. Mr Ron Trembath judged the art show and made the following comments: Section 1: Prep to Grade 2 Marissa 7 from Weeden Heights P.S. (see article above) " A marvellous image in a setting that could well be something out of Looking for Nemo". Section 2: Grade 3 and 4 Lauren 10 from Weeden Heights P.S. (see article above) "Sensitive interpretation with the use of subtle colour". |

| Our thanks to the teachers
for enabling their students to participate in this event. Our thanks also to the Volunteers who spent many hours collating and mounting the entries, prior to arranging them on the display boards. A special thanks to John and Margaret Colvin, Colbry Curtains P/L. As you can see, it was a magnificent display of some very inspired art from young people. Our thanks to Ron Trembath an experienced artist, who judged the entries. Our thanks to to Frame City for donating the coloured mounts for displaying the artworks and for allowing volunteers to use equipment to cut mounts. The artworks were for sale at a modest cost and proceeds from this and a small entry fee for adults was donated to Strathdon Community. |
