Children's jewellery making competition - prize giving

 

Hi

Emma Counsell (age 6) and Olivia Cleobury (age 7) came in to collect their prizes this morning as they are the first and second prize winners from our recent kids jewellery making competition. Both did brilliantly showing real flare and skill.

The prizes included lots of jewellery designing and making supplies. They were delighted with these both began planning what they will make with it all right away. I very much look forward to seeing what they create with it all!

The competition was part of our summer charity day earlier this month which was a brilliant family day with workbench demonstrations, designers on hand to chat with, a classic car rally outside, charity raffle and all sorts of other things to enjoy. For a small donation to the NSPCC, the children can make hair combs, alice bands, bracelets, necklaces and much more and get to keep their pieces. Then Harriet judges the pieces afterwards to select the winner.

The childrens jewellery making alone raised more than £130 for the NSPCC and in total we raised about £250 on the day which is brilliant – many thanks to all who took part.

Our next children’s jewellery making event will be in Halls Green in late November.

Harriet
