East Plean Primary School pupil Avaline has designed the winning logo for a new organisation that is being formed to rebuild and restore the old house and stables within Plean Country Park.
The group behind the plans to transform Plean House and Stables decided to run the competition with the school as part of their aim to deliver the project for the community.
Group member, Elaine Bell, said: “We felt it was only right to ask the school to get involved as the country park is right on the doorstep and many of the pupils in the school visit it.
What we are also trying to achieve with this project is for the benefit of the community and it is important that the design comes from the community.
“We asked the pupils to draw a logo that represented the house and stables and we were really impressed with what they came up with. We are looking forward to transforming the designs to use as we go forward with the project.”
Avaline drew the house with a horse and carriage and it will be used by the organisation for their logo. Second place was Rulize, third was Sophia.
The judges were impressed with other entrants and also chose seven other entries that will be used, in addition to the winning three entries, as the project develops.
Avaline won six art lessons, donated by D2 The Creative Centre in Larbert, while second and third place won £15 and £10 Amazon vouchers.
Head teacher Ruth Donnelly said:
“We are delighted our learners had the opportunity to be actively involved in a community project of this magnitude. We value our community and embrace experiences in which our learners have a voice in shaping, leading and improving their community. We are very proud of all the designs and celebrate with the winners.”
Runners up Vivienne, Harvey, Harris, Charlie, Kyle, Ellis and Maren won a box of sweets each.
