CAPZero kids’ summer art competition

A competition for children living in or attending schools in the CAPZero area (see map of area), other students at EPA Trust schools and those visiting the area over the summer holidays.

Our zero-carbon future: clean energy, healthy planet!

What does a world with clean, green energy and a healthy environment look like to you? Show us your ideas for a better, brighter, zero-carbon future.

What can you create?

Drawings, paintings, poems, short stories (max 300 words), models, collages (send a photo!), digital art… anything goes!

Win prizes and recognition!

Winners in each age group. Top entries will be shown in a community exhibition and shared online.

Needs ideas?

Think about: wind turbines, solar panels, heat pumps, bikes, buses, electric cars, clean air, buzzing bees, green spaces, or what your school might look like in a zero-carbon future.

How to enter

Email a photo or scan of your artwork to us OR post it to CAPZero, Low Carbon Hub, Holywell House, Osney Mead, Oxford OX2 0ES.

Include your name, age, school, title of your piece, and a short 2-3 sentence description.

Who can enter?

Children living in the CAPZero area; all students of EPA Trust schools and North Leigh Church of England Primary School; children visiting the area during the summer holidays.

If you know a student eligible to take part, please do share this with them as we’d love to see as many people taking part as possible and seeing how young people are seeing our zero carbon future.
