Bowen Tourism and Business (BTB) is running an Easter colouring-in competition for local students from Prep to Year 4. The students from Bowen State School, Merinda State School, Queens Beach State School and St Marys Catholic School have the opportunity to take part by colouring in a pic of Kenny the Mango Mascot.
The competition will be judged by Bowen Tourism and Business volunteers and the prizes will be special merchandise packs from the Bowen Visitor Information Centre including a Kenny plush toy, water game and an ice-cream. There will also be fun encouragement awards for those who put in great effort.
The competition closes well before Easter on the 24th of March, this is so the entries can be displayed at the Bowen Visitor Information Centre for all visitors to see, and there will be two prizes for every grade at each school. The competition is being organised by BTB Sales and Admin Consultant, Cindy Tonks, who came up with the idea.
“We are very much looking forward to seeing the student’s artwork and displaying them on our wall at the Visitor information Centre,” she said.
Manager of Bowen Tourism and Business, Leanne Abernethy said "This was all about community engagement and getting kids involved and interested in tourism,”
“The response from the schools has been fantastic and we are also looking forward to a special presentation once the competition had been judged,” she said.
Bowen State School Head of Curriculum, Therese Smalley visited the centre last week to check out the prize packs and she said all the kids are very excited to be celebrating Easter in Bowen.
