National Galleries of Scotland Art Competition for Schools 2006
Thank you to all those who took part in the National Galleries of Scotland Art Competition for Schools 2006. This year we had over 2,500 entries from throughout Scotland and the judging panel had some very difficult decisions to make. The highest number of submissions was for Category A, Nursery, and Category C, Primary 4-7.
We hope that all those participating enjoyed the experience of creating a unique work of art inspired by the collection of the National Galleries of Scotland.
Congratulations to the winners and children who received special merit, and thank you to all the teachers for taking the time and trouble to pack up the works and send them in.
