This Autumn, Preston City Council’s Waste Department is holding a design competition for all secondary schools in the Preston City Council area, for their design to be printed onto their new rotating bin wagons! The competition is open to pupils in years 7-11. To enter, pupils would need to create their own artwork on an A4 sheet of paper, following the theme of recycling and reuse, making it as creative and colourful as possible! There will be one winner and a couple of runner-ups. In addition to their design being printed on the wagons, the winner will also receive some prizes, including a Fire Tablet and Parker Pen.
If any pupils require materials to complete their artwork, such as plain paper, please see Ms Murphy, Head of Art.
