Roscrea: Tidy Towns Childrens Exhibition

March 16th, 2010 · No Comments

Snow, snow and more snow - we thought we had seen enough of it in February but in Roscrea Library, the exhibition room is covered with it for this year’s Tidy Towns Competition.

The theme this year - ”A Snow Scene in Roscrea”. The competition was launched on a cold snowy day in January, and really caught the imagination of the children. All the local primary schools from Junior Infants up to Sixth Class participated, and there are several hundred posters of snowmen, parks, monuments, heritage buildings etc, all covered in snow and in many cases it looks as if snow is falling in the pictures.

The competition has now been judged and the schools have been notified of the results. Prize-winners and their families, together with their teachers and principals attended the Presentation of Prizes which took place in the library on Monday March 15^th at 7 p.m.

The posters are on display in the library, and will remain on show until the end of the month. This is an exhibition of Children’s Art not to be missed.
