prints made by students and will be issued free to schools to remind the

public of the importance of road safety throughout the year.

The theme of the competition is "How to Prevent Traffic Accidents",

Students are free to convey the message in any style.

Direct, simple and positive approaches are preferred, but gruesome

scenes should be avoided.

coloured. The size of each print should be approximately 111⁄2 inches and 14/2

inches.

Prizes for the primary section are $200 for each of the six first
