Results of the 2024 Colouring Competition!

17 May 2024 | Uncategorized

‘Thank You’ to all who entered this year’s  Colouring Competition. Once again the postman was kept busy as we had almost 100 entries, arriving from all regions of England and Northern Ireland, and even some from Southern Ireland and America! Choosing the winners was again very difficult. We are just sorry we couldn’t award more prizes!!

 The winning pictures (along with all the other entries) will be displayed at the Centre when we open for the Bank Holiday Weekend, on Saturday 25th and Monday 27th May. We will be open from 11am until 3pm on both days. There will also be a small display centred on the Life and Work of Isaac Watts including some of the books he wrote. There will obviously also be  opportunity to look at the main exhibition and time for refreshments!

The winning entries will also be on display during our Second-hand Book-Sale weekend (20th-21st June) and for our July Opening (27th July).

The  prizes have already been dispatched to the winners! (If your name is here, and you haven’t received your prize by the end of the month, please let us know!)
