To celebrate our Wild World Heroes Summer Reading Challenge, we have a competition for creative young people in the Falkirk area who want to stand up for their planet!
We want you to create some art that inspires others to care about nature and the world around them.
What should my entry be about?
Think of an environmental issue that you feel strongly about. For example:
- An endangered animal
- Plastic in the ocean
- Littering in the countryside
- Helping wildlife in your garden
- Using less plastic
What format should my entry be in?
You could make:
- A poster with a catchy title, your own artwork and some information
- A one-page comic
- A short video (no more than 3 minutes long)
What should I do with my entry when it’s finished?
Get a grown-up to help you get your entry to us.
Posters and comics: Your grown-up can email your entry to falkirklibraries@gmail.com or you can hand in the paper copy to your local library.
If you’re handing in a physical copy, make sure your name, age and contact details are on the back.
Videos: Email to falkirklibraries@gmail.com or upload to You Tube, Facebook, Vimeo etc. and send us the url link.
What information do you need about me?
- Your name
- Your age
- Your school (if you’re changing school next year, please include that too)
- Your parent/guardian’s email address and phone number
What will you do with my entry?
Our judging panel will pick their favourites and award some prizes. We’ll put as many of the entries as possible on our social media feeds.
Prizes
Yes, we have prizes for our favourite entries! For the first prize, you get to choose an animal from the WWF adoption list and we’ll adopt it for you for a year.
There are also runner up prizes of animal-friendly books and other goodies.
