Waterman Sponsors Fair Go School Ad Awards

Tuesday, September 06, 2011

We were delighted to be able to get behind a loved tradition, the Fair Go School Ad Awards.  Every year school students display their creativeness and ingenuity by coming up with a 30 seconds ad.

  This year the primary school theme is to sell cheese and the secondary school theme is to sell a phone App.

I remember the planning, discussion, storyboarding, filming and editing that my students did to enter this competition. Then there was the anticipation as we waited to hear back to see if we were in the finals.  Unfortunately we never got to the finals but the learning on the way was exciting and a journey the students will never forget.
If you haven't thought about entering it isn't too late and if you are on your way.  Good luck.


Don't forget the cut off date for the entries is Friday 30th September.
Make sure you are on time.


The winning school in each category will each receive a $2000 cash prize plus a Canon High Definition video camera, a prize package from the Music Warehouse (Primary - Medeli stage piano and Fender acoustic guitar; Secondary - audio performer pack and Omega 5-piece drum kit) as well as a Waterman Innovations Mimio Teach and View- putting technology on the whiteboard.
