Photography Competition

Before Christmas, we took part in a photography competition run by Unison. Every child in the class received a disposable camera and a couple of lessons on photographic techniques from Mr. Murphy (who is no David Bailey himself).

Regardless, the children did a really good job of taking photos around the theme of 'Work'. The photos below were shortlisted by Ian Howarth and the good people at Unison. View them and vote for your favourite in the voting section on the right. Your family and friends are welcome to vote too. The winner will receive a prize.
