EACH Poster Competition ~ Marlborough's Runner-Up Prize Winner!

Congratulations to Jamieson T, in Grade 6, who has been announced a runner-up in the EACH Community Health Poster Competition. We are so very proud of you Jamieson!

Students were invited to design an Indigenous inspired poster that conveyed at least one key message to slow the spread of Covid-19. Every single poster submitted will be published and showcased as a collection in a picture book.

Marlborough will be receiving a copy of this book once it is published.

Well done to all Marlborough students who entered this competition and another big round of applause to you Jamieson!

Collages inspired by Jeannie Baker

Students have been inspired by artwork of the Jeannie Baker, after looking at the intricate collages in her book called 'Window'.

There are no words in this book. Only pictures. It took Jeannie nearly 3 years to complete these collaged illustrations!

Students were asked "when you look through the windows at your home what do you see?"


Here are some of the amazing submissions I received from students in Prep to Grade 6.

Spreading some positivity throughout our community during lockdown 2.0

It has brought me so much joy to see the latest submissions from students and their families who have been getting involved in lifting the spirits of our local communities and creating some Street Art to bring a smile to neighbour’s faces when they are out exercising during lockdown.

There have been several wonderful community art movements during our lockdowns, such as the teddy bear hunts, colourful rainbows in windows, positive messages written in chalk on the footpaths just to name a few.

Spoonville is another world-wide phenomenon that lots of communities have been getting involved in. Children decorate wooden spoons and start their own spoon village or add them to an existing one in a location people can see on their daily walks.

Spoonville started in Winnersh, England as a way of improving children’s mental health during COVID-19 lockdowns. It is now a worldwide phenomenon with many Spoonville Villages popping up in suburbs of Melbourne. They even have their own Facebook page.

Here are some of the submissions I've had this week. I am sure they will bring a smile to your face as well!

Thanks also to everyone who has been following the 'Spoonville Rules' that were posted with this task :)
