MORE COMPETITIONS!!
1. A Sport Safe Singapore Creative Competition
Safety should be the cornerstone of each individual’s healthy lifestyle. In order to enjoy a safe and injury-free sporting experience, it is thus important to ensure that Safety is constantly on our minds. Therefore, we seek your participation in our recently launched National initiative – A Sports Safe Singapore Creative Competition. The is in essence a creative design competition that aims to promote Sports Safety to the general public, especially the younger generation. To encourage active participation from the intended audience, various entry formats such as poster design, photography, and short film categories are accepted for the competition. We are also hoping to reach out to all schools (Pri- Tertiary Levels) in Singapore.
2. Faces of Clementi Video Competition
The National Library Board has embarked on a heritage initiative at the various branch libraries. We wish to engage the local community to create a sense of pride and belonging among Singaporeans. As such we are collaborating with the South West Community Development Council to organise the Faces of Clementi Video Competition for the schools in Clementi. We hope that the participating students as well as the public who view the submissions will get to know more about the Clementi through the people who live and work there. A team of 3-5 members can participate in this competition. Each school can send in a maximum of 2 teams. The teams have to present a 3 minute video recording of people living or working in Clementi (can be an interview, a montage etc.) at the new Clementi Public Library. The best 3 entries for the video competition will win prizes. The video entries may be exhibited at the Clementi Public Library in future. All teams need to attend a briefing at the Jurong Regional Library in the first week of July so that they understand the project better and get guidance on research, interview questions, story angle, copyright issues etc from librarians. On the first week of August, schools have to present their videos to NLB staff for review. At the end of August, schools have to present the 3 minute video recording at Clementi Library. Please let us know if your school is keen to participate in this competition. We would like to meet the teacher in charge on Wednesday, 27 April 2011, 3pm at the Jurong Regional Library so that we can discuss further. Please contact us at 6333 7916 or via email Thiruselvi_Gopal@nlb.gov.sg to confirm your attendance at the meeting by 15 April.
