To enter the competition, local schools were invited to decorate, design and colour in a Eurovision themed template. The children's designs have been proudly displayed in an empty unit at Central 12 Shopping Park, and have already created quite a buzz!
 

5 designs were shortlisted from all of the entries, and these are now going forward to an online competition where shoppers can vote for their favourite design. The design with the most votes will be crowned the winner and the school that submitted it will receive £100 worth of stationery to use as they please.
 

Commenting on the competition, Central 12 Shopping Park spokesperson said:- "We are delighted to have received such an amazing response to our competition from local schools. The creativity and talent of the children has been truly inspiring, and we are excited to see which design will be chosen as the winner."
 

The online competition is open to all shoppers, who can cast their vote via Central 12’s Facebook page, live now till 12 May 2023, with the winner being able to collect the prize in time for the Eurovision final on 13 May 2023! The winning design will be announced shortly after.
