This October, in celebration of Black History Month, our students were invited to participate in a creative competition honouring inspirational Black figures throughout history.

The response was incredible, with entries reflecting talent, imagination, and thought-provoking messages that highlighted the achievements and legacies of remarkable individuals.

Every submission showcased the students’ creativity and commitment, from striking illustrations to powerful paintings, making the judging process both challenging and inspiring. The competition provided an opportunity for students to reflect on history, express themselves artistically, and celebrate the contributions of Black trailblazers in a meaningful way.

After careful deliberation, the winners were announced:

🥇 1st Place: Tody Askew – for an amazing design that captured both creativity and impact.

🥈 2nd Place: Niso Dominguez – for a beautiful and imaginative illustration that impressed the judges.

🥉 3rd Place: Jessica Daley – for a colourful and inspiring painting that truly celebrated the theme of Black History Month.

We are incredibly proud of all students who took part, each entry was powerful, inspiring, and full of talent. Competitions like this demonstrate the importance of creativity in exploring history and social awareness, and the passion and skill on display were remarkable.

Thank you to everyone who entered and contributed to such a successful celebration of Black History Month. Your creativity and thoughtfulness continue to inspire us all!
