Hey people, found this competition online that is open to all schools in Singapore. Sorry Alumni, we are too old for this. Don't know if they have contacted you guys already but I think this would be a great competition for you people to showcase your works and bring even more glory to MJC Photog.

The South Zone Centre of Excellence for Design in collaboration with National Geographic Store, Singapore is launching ‘Reflection’, a Youth Photo Competition. This inaugural Photo Competition and Exhibition is open to all primary, secondary and integrated programme (IP) schools, junior colleges and Millennia Institute in Singapore. 

The aims of this competition and exhibition are manifold:-
  • To encourage children and youths to explore the medium of photography in a creative and experimental manner by means of the competition;
  • To extend the opportunity for them to showcase good pieces of work via the subsequent photo exhibition;

  • Through the exhibition platform, to create an awareness of themselves, the environment and of nature

This competition and exhibition marks our attempt to introduce photography as part of authentic art and design in schools. It showcases young photographers and their talent and encourages creative interpretation of the given theme.
