Spring in a Frame Winners Announced

Our Science team's Spring in a Frame wildlife photography competition, in conjunction with Cheshire Wildlife Trust, attracted almost 100 entries from students, primary school pupils and staff. The photographs were fantastic and judging was very difficult but a winner and a runner up in each category were eventually chosen.

The CHS and primary school winners both won a pack of three smartphone macro lenses, a bee hotel and a Cheshire Wildlife Trust gift bag containing a soft toy, a seed growbar and a nature journal. The runners up both received a Cheshire Wildlife Trust gift bag. A box of chocolates was awarded to each of the winners in the CHS Staff category.

Congratulations go to:

• Year 7 Isaac L, who won first prize at CHS with his beautiful Swallowtail Butterfly photo.
• Year 13 Amelia L, who took second prize at CHS with her vibrant image of daffodils at Astbury.
• PB from Astbury St. Mary's Primary School, who took first prize in the Primary School category with a lovely photo of spring lambs peeping round their feeder.
• Calum, a Reception pupil from Quinta Primary School, who came second with his inquisitive highland cows picture.
• Mrs Jackson Moss, whose Hoverfly photograph won her first prize in the CHS Staff category.
• Our Science Technician, Mrs Haran, who shared her photo of a cheeky squirrel stealing food from the bird feeders, which won her second prize.

Well done and thank you to everyone who took part and also to Year 13, Lily H, who designed the poster for the competition.
