Arabian Rainbow Competition for Australian Schools
St Kevins Catholic Primary School was the winner of the Arabian Rainbow Competition
Inspired by the Arabian Gulf’s first public art project launched in Dubai in 2004, the competition encouraged primary school pupils to creatively paint a life-sized sculpture of a horse using the colors of the rainbow. It also provided teachers with an opportunity to engage the pupils in discussions covering a wide range of key subjects including culture, language, geography and sport. The winning school will receive a cash prize of $3,000.00, $2,000.00 for second place and $1,500.00 for third place
