All the primary schools in Darwen were invited to participate and submit the best three pictures in the 7 to 10 year old age range.
Sadly, possibly due to the constraints of Covid, only three schools took part. Sudell Primary School, St Peters C of E Primary School and Hoddlesden St Pauls C of E Primary School.
Despite this disappointment the standard was very high and there are three worthy winners.
First Prize of £20 was awarded to Anna Nagy of Sudell Primary School and she also won a prize of £100 for her school.
Second Prize of £15 was awarded to Emily Bullen and Third Prize of £10 was awarded to Eileen Leadly both of Hoddlesden St Pauls C of E Primary School
There were four highly commended and two well done awards all of whom received a prize of £5.
