Celebrating Amelia – Winner of the Telford Flag Competition!

We are thrilled to share some wonderful news with our school community. Amelia, has been announced as the winner of the Telford Flag Competition!
The competition, which launched back in June, invited designs from pupils across the Borough. After a two-week public vote with more than 4,000 votes cast, Amelia’s thoughtful and creative design received the most support.
Her flag will be raised at Southwater Square as part of the Telford Day celebrations on Saturday 29 November — an incredible achievement and a moment she should feel very proud of.
Councillor Lee Carter, Leader of Telford & Wrekin Council, praised Amelia’s design, noting the way it celebrates Telford’s heritage by featuring the Ironbridge, a cog, and the colour green to represent our parks and open spaces.
Amelia said:
“I’m really happy I’ve won the flag competition… I am excited to see my flag flying. Thank you to everyone who voted.”
Her mum, Jayne, added:
“We are incredibly proud of Amelia… Her design was creative and thoughtful and reflected Telford so well.”
We are delighted to share that the school will also receive £250 worth of arts and crafts supplies, kindly donated by the competition’s media partner, Telford Live.
A huge congratulations to Amelia for her fantastic achievement — we are all so proud of you!
