VE Day Art Competition – “The Day Peace Returned”

To encourage creativity, we are holding an exciting art competition open to all pupils.

  • Theme: The Day Peace Returned
  • Entry fee: £1.50 (payable via ParentPay)
  • Submission deadline: Wednesday 7th May

We’d love children to create a piece of art that shows celebration, joy and the return of peace at the end of World War II. We can’t wait to see what you create!

Here are some ideas to inspire:

A painting of street parties

A collage of doves, flags and fireworks

A sculpture showing people coming together

A drawing of families reunited.

Entries should be bought into school on Wednesday 7th May, via your child’s class base, and will be judged by the School Council on Thursday 8th May! Prizes to be given during assembly on Friday 9th May.

We’re encouraging children to be as imaginative and expressive as they like!
