There was a buzz and flurry of activity as students arrived at the venue and registered themselves in the three different categories. Each category was given a distinct topic to ensure creativity and expression at different levels. The categories and topics were as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n

Grades 5 to 7 \u2013 Every child is a leader<\/span><\/p>\n

Grades 8 to 10 \u2013 Inclusion for every child<\/span><\/p>\n

Grades 11 to 12 \u2013 Digital generation, our generation<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

The competition began at 10 a.m. and participants were given an hour and half to express themselves through their interpretation of the given topic. From pencils to water\/oil colours, crayons, charcoal, etcetera, there was a variety of materials used.<\/span><\/p>\n

Participants worked with single-minded focus to create innovative, colourful and meaningful art work. Their creativity and artistic streak were clearly evident in the final outcome. The judge for the competition was principal of Goa College of Art, Panaji, W. Goes who had a hard time selecting the three winners in the three categories. \u201cArt is magic. It is a magnet that attracts everyone especially children. The large turnout today for the art competition organised by Navhind Times to celebrate Childrens\u2019 Day is proof of this fact. We could see the children deeply engrossed in venting out their artistic energies,\u201d said Goes during the prize distribution.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cParticipation in competitions is as important as winning. Everybody cannot win a prize in a competition, but by participating itself, you are a winner. I congratulate each and every child for participating and also congratulate the parents and teachers for encouraging and training the children to participate,\u201d he added.<\/span><\/p>\n

Winners were awarded certificates and the cash prizes were sponsored by Deccan Fine Chemicals Private Limited. The chief guest at the valedictory function was manager- CSR, Deccan Fine Chemicals, Gaurav Kudchadkar. Speaking on the occasion he congratulated all the participants and encouraged the love of art and expression. Also present on the dais was senior general manager, The Navhind Publications, Pramod Revankar along with the judge for the competition, W. Goes.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

The competition instilled an immense sense of competition and creativity. Each participant was rewarded with a certificate, which will stand strong in future as a mark of early participation. After the success of the competition, The Navhind Times is looking forward to the next edition which promises to be bigger and even more unique.<\/span><\/p>\n
