Mayor launches Wokingham Borough past and present photo competition
On Tuesday - July 15 - Wokingham Borough Council’s Mayor Cllr Pauline Helliar-Symons will be launching her photographic competition at Winnersh Library with the help of pupils from Bearwood Primary School.
The competition, based on the theme Wokingham Borough…Past and Present, is being supported by Snappy Snaps, Wokingham. Pupils from Bearwood Primary School will join the Mayor for a photographic workshop. During the hour-long workshop, pupils will learn more about photography and pick up some tips on how to take good pictures.
Wokingham Mayor Cllr Pauline Helliar-Symons said: “I am delighted pupils from Bearwood Primary School are able to join me in launching my photographic competition. The theme is quite broad as I want all entrants to think about the Wokingham Borough and photograph something that captures either the past or the present or even a combination of both! I am very grateful to our sponsors Snappy Snaps for being willing to support the competition.”
The competition has four categories: Adults; young people aged between 11 and 14; young people aged between 15 and 18; and all borough primary schools. Finalists will be invited to a prize reception in the autumn and their photos will be exhibited in The Mall Gallery at the civic offices, Shute End in Wokingham before the exhibition tours the borough and visits libraries.
