| On Wednesday, December 13, Mrs McClenaghan welcomed winners to Board headquarters in Armagh to receive a £65 prize for themselves, £65 for their schools and a framed copy of the winning entry for the pupils.
An Angel design by Erica Camporese, a pupil of Portadown Integrated Primary School, was chosen for the Board’s card which will be sent to schools and colleges.
A landscape drawing by Stephen Rooney, a pupil of St Columban’s College, Kilkeel was chosen for the card which the SELB Chairperson and Chief Executive will send to chairpersons of education bodies, education-related organisations, district councils and Government Departments.
It was so difficult to select the top two entries that the judges decided to award two commendation prizes each to receive a £30 prize for themselves and £30 for their schools: Chloe Burton, Royal School, Dungannon and Thomas Saxton, Lisanally School, Armagh.
Mrs McClenaghan expressed her appreciation to the principals, teachers and pupils who took up the challenge of the competition. |
