PROMISE FOR THE PLANET POSTER COMPETITION
EARTH HOUR 2019: 30 At 8.30pm on Saturday 30 March 2019 hundreds of millions of people
MARCH 8:30PM across the world will be turning out their lights and coming together to
celebrate Earth Hour. It’s a time to show we care about our world and a
symbolic reminder that the future of our planet hangs in the balance.
We’re asking everyone who takes part in Earth Hour to make an
individual promise for the planet. There are so many simple things that
pupils can do such as refusing plastic cutlery in their school canteen,
cycling or walking to school, or even growing fruit and vegetables in
their school grounds.
COMPETITION ASK: We would like your pupils to design a poster showcasing their very own
individual promise for the planet. The winning posters will be displayed
on Edinburgh City Centre bus shelters and digital screens on selected
Lothian buses from 1st March up to Earth Hour 2019. We'll be looking
for designs that will inspire the people of Edinburgh to make their own
promise for the planet. One winner from each category will win the
following:
Their poster displayed on Edinburgh City Centre bus shelters and
digital screens on selected Lothian buses from 1st March up to Earth
Hour 2019.
One WWF species adoption of their choice for their classroom to run
for one year.
COMPETITION DATES: The competition runs from 8 January to 5pm Friday, 1 February 2019.WHO CAN APPLY? The competition is open to pupils who are Edinburgh residents,
attending an Edinburgh school on the closing date of the competition –
Friday 1 February 2019.
To enter, pupils will need to produce a print or digital poster (A4 or A3,
landscape or portrait) sharing their promise for the planet. There are
five age categories based on the curriculum levels and there will be one
winner from each age category. Please use the Earth Hour Promise
for the Planet poster competition entry form below and ensure a
copy of the entry form accompanies all entries to the competition.
THE TASK: Pupils are invited to design a poster to show their promise for the planet
across one of four themes:
Fight against plastic pollution
Fight for our wildlife
Fight to tackle climate change
Fight to fix our food system
Posters will be judged on creativity and clarity of message.
TOP TIPS: Use bold lines and big fonts
Don’t use high-visibility colours (like hi-viz yellow); as these posters
are road-side we can’t distract drivers too much!
Fill the paper with your design
POSTER SPECIFICATIONS: Posters must be
Either A3 or A4 in size
Portrait or landscape orientation
Produced by one pupil only
Static – no moving images
For display reasons, posters should be finished with bold lines as designs
with thin, faint, or small details may not enlarge and reproduce well to
the size of the final posters. Posters must be accompanied by the
competition entry form.
