Pembrokeshire pupils are being invited to enter a photographic competition organised by the county’s Farmers’ Union of Wales branch and sponsored by local organic milk producers Trioni Ltd.
The branch is asking children to take photographs in Pembrokeshire depicting one of three categories - Farm Life, The Countryside and Wildlife.
FUW Pembrokeshire county vice chairman Hywel Vaughan, who launched the competition at Maenclochog C P School, said: “The competition is open to children aged between 4 and 18 and will be judged in two age categories: 4-11 and 12-18.
“The photographs taken by the winner and runner-up of each category and age group will be made into a 2013 calendar which will be sold in aid of the FUW president’s charity Cancer Research Wales.”
The winner of each category will receive a £15 gift voucher for themselves, a copy of the calendar featuring their photograph, one day’s free admittance to the 2012 Pembrokeshire County Show to receive their prizes and a £25 cheque for their school.
The runner-up of each category will receive a £10 gift voucher for themselves, a copy of the calendar featuring their photograph, one day’s free admittance to the 2012 Pembrokeshire County Show to receive their prizes and a £15 cheque for their school.
