Bristol Photo Festival

Over Spring/Summer 2021 Bristol Education Partnership held a photography competition in collaboration with Bristol Photo Festival and the Soil Association.

The theme was “Growing Spaces” and we invited students at all partner schools to submit their best images relating to this theme. The photograph could be taken at home, at school or out in the community. The aim was to showcase and celebrate the natural, growing world of flowers, vegetables, weeds, plants, trees – and even people.

There were three categories for entries and winners – KS3, KS4 and KS5. The competition was judged by a panel including a representative of Bristol Photo Festival, a representative from the Soil Association and a representative from BEP.

All winning and highly commended entries are to be displayed in an online exhibition space hosted by Bristol Photo Festival which will go live on Friday 2 July. The winner in each of the three categories will receive: a copy of Growing Spaces by Chris Hoare, a voucher and certificate. All highly commended entries will receive a voucher and certificate.

THANK YOU TO ALL THOSE WHO ENTERED THE COMPETITION. THE STANDARD WAS HIGH AND JUDGING WAS DIFFICULT.
