Ward-Hendry Photography Competition Winner
Ross Playle (year 10) has been chosen as the winner for the Ward-Hendry Photography Competition 2009 in the Southern Region.There were a lot of entries for this region, and the competition was very high, so Ross deserves a big congratulations.
His photographs will now be featured in an exhibition at the Annual Academies Conference at Chelsea Football Club, London on 8 and 9 July 2009, and will also be printed in the conference programme. There will be about 350 people at the conference (mainly principals and sponsors) from academies across the country, so it will be a high-profile event! Ross and his teacher, Miss Mead, have been invited to the gala dinner where his photographs will be exhibited.Ross is now automatically entered into the second part of the competition, to find a National Winner, with an opportunity to win some amazing prizes for Maltings Academy. He gets to work with a professional photographer on a photo-shoot to develop some images for the storyboard panel he will create, as well as being awarded with his own digital camera.
