Easter Egg Colouring competition 04.04.12

Towards the end of March, Myself and Tyche arrange an Easter Egg colouring competition for the children. We handed out sheets containing an Easter egg template and they simply had to colour or designing it however they wanted to try and win some prizes.

The prize categories were as follows:

1. Under 15 1st and 2nd prizes
2. Under 12 1st and 2nd prizes
3. Under 9 1st and 2nd prizes
4. The eggiest egg award
5. The most colourful egg award
6. The most Easter like egg award

Prizes consisted of coloured pencils, bouncy balls, chocolate and Easter eggs.

We had the prize ceremony during the morning school assembly and you could see the children crossing their fingers and listening carefully hoping to win.

It was something that they all enjoyed and experienced for the first time. Before myself and Tyche arrived, the previous volunteers had not done anything like this with the children and before for any volunteers, nobody thought about arranging such a simple competition to get everyone into the Easter spirit.
