The results are in!
We’re proud to present the winner and runners up of our secondary school photography competition.
Thank you to everyone who submitted photographs. The standard of the submissions was incredibly high, and our team was hard put to select a winner.
After some careful consideration however, we’re happy to offer our congratulations to Lucien from Leytonstone School for coming first, as well as our two runners up, Emily from Highlands School and Leilani from Friern Barnet School.
We judged each photograph according to its composition, its aesthetic and by how well they managed to achieve the brief of capturing a moment of nature fighting back against human activity. Here are our winners:
'Circle' - By Lucien, Leytonstone School, Waltham Forest

'Nature's Quiet Triumph' - By Emily, Highlands School, Enfield

'Resilience' - By Leilani, Friern Barnet School, Barnet

Prizes
The winning photographer will be invited along with their teacher and families to an unveiling ceremony at EcoPark House, where their artwork will be professionally printed and hung on the wall for visitors to the facility to admire.
They will also receive:
- An A2 framed print of their photograph for their school
- A smaller printed version to take home
- A £250 voucher for their school to spend on supplies or equipment of their choice *
- A bag of reusable goodies
The two runners up will also be invited with their teachers and families to the ceremony, where their work will also be printed and displayed.
