Inishowen creams
milk carton sculpture awards
CREATIVE Inishowen schoolchildren were overall
winners in a competition to make sculptures using
Donegal Creameries' milk cartons.
Sixth class at St Colmcille's N.S., Greencastle,
scooped the top prize in the group section after
fashioning a fantastic brown chicken called 'Alice'. |

Pictured with ‘Alice The Chicken’ are
St Colmcille's N.S., pupils Eimear Henry, Charlotte
Van Stiphout, Grace Diver, Chloe Moir, Sarah
McCauley and Ciara Kay. Also pictured is their
teacher, Fionnuala Monaghan. |
Meanwhile, the overall
winner in the individual section was Beibhinn
McClure from third class in St Patrick’s Girls
School in Carndonagh who made a lovely owl.
The competition was run through the inaugural
Donegal Creameries Health and Wellbeing Educational
Curriculum resource.
It challenged students to get creative and sculpt
their own pieces of artwork using nothing but milk
cartons.
Donegal Creameries said the novel competition
attracted a "very encouraging response" from schools
around the county. |
