Welcome to Feet First
Safer Journeys competitions for 2012
Tēnā koutou katoa / Greetings everybody
The NZTA has three competitions for Year 1-8 students with a theme “Safer journeys for children .”
- Storyboard to movie / animation – this popular option has been retained.
- Digital Journeys – developing an ebook.
- Pick-a-Path – the choices we make as we travel to or from school.
The competitions are open to all schools with Year 1-8 students. Each school can enter any of the competitions as many times as they would like.
Start as soon as you like. Entries are being accepted for all three of the competitions between 5 June and 27 July.
Each competition will have two winners. In addition to their prize vouchers, winners will receive direct in-school support to develop and refine their entry. Stuart Hale and Innes Kennard, two well known e-learning facilitators, will provide the support.
All winning and runner up entries will be promoted on the NZTA education website.
