ANNOUNCING ERA’s 6th Kids Poster Contest Starting in September!
The ERA is proud to announce their 6th Kids Poster Contest that will launch September 2023. We are asking students including Elementary, Junior High, and High Schools across Canada to use their creative minds for a chance to win a FREE laptop. This competition is designed to not only educate students on the importance of sustainability and the 3 R’s (Reduce Reuse Recycle) but to bring their vision of an ever-changing environment to life through art.
How does it work?
To enter the contest, create a poster that best represents the ever-changing environment by combining the waste hierarchy known to many as “Reduce, Reuse and Recycle”. Please relay the poster in some way to ERA’s mission statement.
How to enter?
Entries must be submitted by teachers online. Click HERE to upload entries.
