in saturday morning when laogong sent royee to the art class and I sent angel to ballet class, then the art class teacher pass the certificate from Taiwan to laogong n said 'your child won in the Taiwan drawing competition. laogong got surprise, and when he called me, I got surprise too!
this is the pic of cert that I asked laogong to mms me. can't wait to see what's happening hehe. by the way, we haven't seen the picture. the original piece had been sent over and the teacher has snapped the pic of the drawing. so, will wait for it to show us.
but still, mummy will be suspicious on the truth of the competition. very naughty guessing, what if the art school printed the certificate by themselves and fooling us around? so this morning I google the details.
oh! it is real! and the submission of the art works were few months ago! no wonder I asked royee what he drew, he said don't know oo. below are the details I copied from Taiwan embassy website.
"The 42nd World School Children's Art Exhibition
25 August 2011 - 27 September 2011
14:00 - 21:30
Sunday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday
Venue: Nanhai Gallery (南海藝廊)
The Taiwan's World School Children's Painting Exhibition offers children a platform for creating and appreciating paintings. In participating, children can be immersed in free, open, and playful culture. With an open mind, they can express themselves through painting process, break the language and word boundary, create symbolic situation and master their inner desire. Meantime, they can overcome obstacles about social communication. These become the main reasons why such a kind of painting exhibition has become profoundly popular for many years. We welcome people, especially those who care about and feel interested in art education, to come and watch this exhibition.
Focus: It will put on display works from 42nd exhibition decorated with outstanding honor, and others that won gold, silver, and bronze prizes from oversea competitions. Through the paint-brush of these children, we can then travel around the world and view about these wonders, so that we can have appreciated the diversified and rich world of marvel."
the exhibition is for age group 6-15. so, hopefully royee can work harder, think creatively to get more selected merit in future :) the award can build up children confidence level too!
