A+ Video Competition Winners Announced!

Last term, students were given a challenge - to create a short video to show what being a Springston A+ student means for them. Inspired by the movie Mankind is no island, the video was to have photos or short video clips of words found around the home or community. When the photos of words were put together they would make sentences or a poem, explaining what being a Springston A+ Learner means.

The videos could be made at home or at school - students could enter on their own, or with friends or family members.
We have had 6 entries, from 11 students, and they have done an amazing job! For many, this was their first effort using the Flip video camera, or doing any video work, let alone making their own movie.

Entries were judged on how well the video expressed the characteristics of a Springston A+ learner, the use of words and images to describe the ideas, as well as the creative and innovative ways of presenting the ideas. The number of original images used, the quality of their photography/video work, and the inclusion of appropriate music, were also considered.


And now, we have our winners! They were announced at assembly this afternoon. You can view the videos of the first and second place-getters here. And you can view ALL the videos that were entered, on the E-Team Blog, or by following the links listed below. ENJOY!
