The Vocational and Applied Programmes Unit, under the Ministry for Education, Sport, Youth, Research and Innovation, organized the Digital Art Competition for the third consecutive year. The primary objective of this competition was to promote digital artwork and raise awareness about the diverse forms of digital art. Students ranging from Year 1 to Year 11, attending both state and non-state schools, were invited to submit their digital artwork based on one of three themes: Animals, Movement, and My Home Town.

This initiative attracted a participation of approximately one hundred students from different schools, who showcased their creativity through various forms of digital art. The submissions encompassed a wide range of digital drawings, photographs, collages, illustrations, and animations.

We would like to acknowledge the outstanding achievements of the students who secured the top three positions in each of the four categories. Additionally, we extend our heartfelt congratulations to Class 5 at San Gorg Preca Resource Centre for their work, which earned them a special prize. However, it is important to emphasize that we consider ALL participants as winners. We invite everyone to view the submissions online on the Media Literacy Facebook page (https://rb.gy/8l8xu).
