VE Art Competition

 

To celebrate the 80th anniversary of VE Day this year, we held a school-wide VE Day art competition titled ‘The Day Peace Returned.’ Students from all year groups were encouraged to showcase their creativity, resulting in an incredible array of entries that beautifully captured the spirit and significance of VE Day. The finalists were carefully judged by our school council, who had the challenging task of selecting the most outstanding pieces. The winners were then announced in a special assembly, where the entire school came together to celebrate the artistic talents of our students and remember the importance of peace.

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)

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.
