From the beginning of March some of our art students had been developing designs for a skateboard deck that would be entered into the Wodonga Youth DECK’D competition, with the winner announces at an event held on April 11th.
The DECK’D competition was organised by the Wodonga council in conjunction with the Wodonga Local Drug Action Team and was aimed to prevent the use of drugs.

More than 60 skateboard designs were a part of the exhibition, which was held at the Wodonga plaza, each promoting an anti-drug message.
During the exhibition they announced the winning designs, 2 runner-ups and a winner for each age group division. Three students from our College made a big impression by taking 2 of these runner-up positions and one taking first place for their age group.
Paige Nicholls (Year 7) was the runner-up for the 12-13 age group, Hannah Swinkels (Year 9) was the runner-up for the 14-17 age group and Piper Coleman (Year 7) was the winner for the 12-13 age group.
A big congratulations to these students, and to all those who contributed to this great cause.
