Andrean of the Year Awards
Each year, a theme will be chosen for a short story, art and music composition competition.
Prizes: Three Junior/Gawura School finalists will each receive a $20 prize and three Secondary School finalists will each receive a $50 prize. The overall winner of the Junior Andrean Writer/Artist/Composer/Designer of the Year ($100 prize) and the Andrean Writer/Artist/Composer/Designer of the Year ($200 prize) will be announced at Speech Night. All entrants will receive a certificate of participation and notable entries will receive certificates of commendation. The winners will have their entries published in the school newsletter.
Judging: Winning entries will be judged on creativity, writing/artistic/composition skill, engagement of the reader/viewer/listener and originality in exploring the theme. Entries must be composed this year and no group entries are permitted. Plagiarism will result in disqualification. All Junior submissions will be judged by Deputy Head of School (Primary) and Senior submissions by the Head of English (Writing), the Head of Visual Arts (Art), the Director of Performing Arts (Music Composition) and Head of TAS (Design).
