The South African Environmental Observation Network (NRF-SAEON) is delighted to announce the winners of the 2023 Atlantic Ocean Competition. This annual national school competition, hosted in partnership with the Department of Science and Innovation, received entries in categories of poetry, art and video. A call for entries was opened in October 2023 and closed mid-November and NRF-SAEON received approximately 250 entries from schools all over South Africa.
The competition themes for 2023 were:
The winners in the art competition categories were Mia E. Watson from Trinity Grammar Christian Primary School; Leche Sampson from Bethelsdorp Comprehensive School; and Mpumeleo van Wyk from Bethelsdorp Comprehensive School in Gqeberha.
The video competition first prize went to Aman Pati from Kingfisher Private School in Phalaborwa; and the second prize went to Vivek Pauly, also from Kingfisher Private School.
The Atlantic Ocean art, poetry and video competition was conceptualised to engage, educate and inspire all Grade R to 12 learners in the country to appreciate and protect the ocean. This competition provides a platform for creative expression, awareness raising, environmental stewardship and the cultural diversity of our people to connect to the Atlantic Ocean.
Says Dr Mary-Jane Bopape, NRF-SAEON Managing Director, "NRF-SAEON extends our heartfelt congratulations to the winners of the Atlantic Ocean Competition. Your dedication and passion for ocean conservation is inspiring. To all aspiring learners, we encourage you to dive into the depths of creativity when the 2024 competition reopens. Let's continue to explore, learn, and protect our precious ocean together."
A call for the 2024 Atlantic Ocean Competition will be issued in April 2024.
