Kids Book Review Competition Winners

Thank you to all who entered the Kids Book Review Competition to win a Steve Parish Book Pack consisting of: 

Amazing Facts About Australian Wildlife Conservation, Amazing Facts About Australian Marine Life  and Amazing Facts About Australia’s Early Settlers. 

Congratulations to the three prize winners, who are:

Jaymz Harvey, 4.5 years, with the entry: "We need to look after wildlife otherwise it will die and all the colours will disappear from the Earth."

Brett Murray, 9 years, with the entry: "If we don't look after nature then nature won't look after us.  We are part of nature and it is our job to care for it."

Jenny Tiffen, 31 years, with the entry: "Because we all deserve somewhere comfortable to live and raise our families - especially if the kids are furry, scaley or slimey"

Each will receive the three-book pack.

However, it is so encouraging to see so many children and adults concerned about wildlife conservation, and we had so many great entries that Steve Parish Publishing would also like to award two runner-up prizes, which will consist of a copy of Nature Watch: Animal Homes.  Runner up prizes go to:

Abby Tankard, 5 years, with the entry: " I love animals and we need to keep them alive for other kids and me to love."

Chloe Marks, 10 years, with the entry: "Because the animals have a life, like us, and we need to protect all life!"

Winners will be contacted by phone or email today, Monday 6 September 2010, and the prizes will be posted this week. Congratulations and thank you for entering.

New England National Park 75th Anniversary Photographic Competition

New England National Park turns 75 this year and they're celebrating with a photographic competition with more than $5000 in prizes across five categories. Your photo may be selected as one of sixty finalists for a month-long exhibition at the Dorrigo Rainforest Centre in September-October 2010.
 
New England National Park, part of the Gondwana Rainforests of Australia World Heritage Area, located 75 km east of Armidale, is one of New South Wales' great national parks.
 
Arising from the vision and dedication of a few influential community representatives, it was first gazetted on the 24 May 1935. The park's dramatic landscapes, ancient rainforests, photogenic wildlife and inspiring bushwalks make great themes for this competition.
 
The overall winner for the best photo from all categories will receive a pair of Swarovski Optik Binoculars (valued at $1679) from Bintel and Swarovski Optik. Other prizes include a 3-room Coleman Lakeside 7 tent, a Berghaus backpack from Armidale Outdoors, a framed canvas photo print of your choice from Ozprintshop, and a whale watch tour with Spirit of Coffs Harbour.
 
All sixty finalists will have the opportunity to sell prints of their photographs to the public during the exhibition period by arrangement with the Dorrigo Rainforest Centre.
 
During the exhibition, visitors will be invited to vote for their favourite image. Both the people's choice award winner and a voter selected at random will win a meal for two at the Canopy Café at the Dorrigo Rainforest Centre.
 
The judging panel includes renowned local photographers Alex Cowley and Tim Aickin, as well as Ranger for the park Mal Dwyer.

The competition closes on 30 July 2010.
