Scotland’s Environment Web is running an exciting competition for young people, with fantastic prizes, and the closing date for entries has now been extended until 31st March 2014.
What is the competition about?
What needs to change in your local community that will make a difference to your environment and what role can you play in making it happen?
We want you to answer the question above. Tell us how you could make your environment better. Planet Earth faces tough environmental challenges which will directly impact your future. Everyone can be a part of the solution to these challenges and Scotland’s young people have a key role to play.
During our recent Glow Meet, which you can access through Watch Again T.V. at http://bit.ly/SEWeb , you told us how you are already getting involved in caring for and improving Scotland’s environment.
The extended closing date of 31st March 2014 will provide more opportunity for young people to participate. The awards ceremony will be held in June.
Who can enter?
This competition is open to all young people throughout Scotland between the ages of 5-18, whether through your school, as part of a group or as an individual.
You can also enter the Young Reporters for the Environment competition if you are eligible.
