Emma Ylitalo (Year 11), Rowan Easson and Pablo Gomez-Martin (Year 9) all submitted composites on the theme of ‘A Different Perspective’, with their work going through to the district finals at senior and intermediate level respectively.

Emma’s winning streak continued, and she was awarded second place at senior level in the district heats for her music-inspired composite of three black and white images.
