123ICT Digital Greetings Message Competition – Deadline Reminder. As you are no doubt extremely busy in schools at the moment whilst leading up to the end of term, we thought that it might be be helpful to remind you about the up-and-coming deadline for our Digital Greetings Message Competition.
The competition deadline is Wednesday the 19th of December so you still have a little over three weeks in order to get your entries in to us.
Full details of the competition are reproduced below for your information.
Ho! Ho! Ho! The time to offer seasonal greetings will be with us, before we know it, once more!
This is your chance to design a digital greetings card or message and possibly win a whole-school subscription to the fantastic Serial Mash (2Simple Software’s growing online library of books specifically written for use in primary school classrooms) and a Striker Boy book pack!
The runner-up school will receive a free 123ICT Pupil Workshop of their choice!
Welcome to 123ICT’s annual competition to design a digital seasonal greetings card, or message. The greetings card competition has always proved to be very popular. This year again, we welcome entries that are in the form of a simple card, an animation, or a card augmented by audio – the idea is to deliver a cheery seasonal message which could be used to convey seasonal greetings to friends or family.
We think that this is an excellent competition topic for this term; because, with Christmas rapidly approaching, you may already be preparing to take advantage of some of your fantastic computing resources and planning for your school children to create digital greetings cards to take home at the end of term. This being the case, why not submit a copy of the design into the competition and possibly win some great prizes?
Great Prizes
First Prize. The winning school will receive a year’s whole-school subscription to Serial Mash(a growing online library of books specifically written for use in a primary school) and a Striker Boy book pack, kindly donated by 2Simple Software.
Runner-Up Prize. The runner-up school will win a 123ICT pupil workshop of their choice.
The competition is intended for both Key Stage One and Two children. For inspiration, why not visit the submissions galleries from the previous year’s seasonal greetings competitions from the links on our website Competitions Page?
