Spreydon School Birthday 2010

Spreydon School Birthday

Information

• In 2009 the Spreydon School Council investigated having a Spreydon School Birthday.

• The School Council found out that on the 5th of August 1872, some land was granted for a school to be built on Halswell Road. This was first called the Upper Heathcote School and is now called Spreydon School.

Presents

• In 2010 the Spreydon School Council decided that on your birthday you should get a gift. So we came up with lots of ideas for presents for the school. We all decided on a school flag.

Design a Flag

• The School Council designed a competition for all students to enter.

• The students were asked to Design a Spreydon School Flag.

Entries

• The School Council met and looked at all the entries and decided on 10 to take to Mr Wardrop to consider for the Spreydon School Flag.

• Mr Wardrop narrowed it down to 7. But he couldn’t decide on one design.

Winners

• The seven winners were:

Lucy, Liana, Emma, Ruby, Olivia, Hayden and Brenna.

• They all received a muffin for their efforts.

Wellmarque

• Mr Wardrop invited the Ambassadors to go with him to WellMarque to work with Helen, a graphic designer, to create a Spreydon flag using all of the ideas from the competition winners.

Helen

• Inside we meet a pleasant lady named Helen. She is in charge of designing flags.

• Helen helped us design an excellent flag.

Flag

• We added some changes to her idea and we now have a fantastic school flag.
