Integrated Catchment Management (ICM) Workshop – Schools Art Competition

The Connecting Research and Practice Workshop was held at the Rutherford Hotel, in Nelson on 26 - 28 April 2010.

The winners of the ICM schools art competition, sponsored by Landcare Research and Cawthron was a great success.

There were 69 entries in total – 1 video item, the rest posters or art works. Entries came from a range of schools including Richmond Montessori, Salisbury School, Henley School, Motueka High School, Parklands School, Ngatimoti School and Tapawera High School. The quality of the entries was very high so we ended up splitting up the prize money so a broader group were acknowledged.

The winners were:

Primary/Intermediate Section:

	'A Hover of Trout', by Room 4, Ngatimoti School
	'Motueka River' by Irene Post, Year 8, Ngatimoti School

School prizes went to Ngatimoti School and Parklands School.

Plus a special mention to Maddie Cornelison from Richmond Montessori pre-school.

Senior Section:

	'All as One' by Tegan Lamont, Yr 11, 15yrs, Motueka High School (artwork and text)
	'Motueka River Catchment' by Lisa Podlucky, 17yrs, Motueka High School
	A DVD film of the Motueka River Catchment by Rachel Stewart, Rm 6, 15yrs, Salisbury School

School prizes went to Motueka High School and Salisbury School.
