Talented Caoimhe gets on her bike 31.01.11

CARN schoolgirl Caoimhe Browne is cycling around in style after winning a brand new bike in a national art competition. Caoimhe was one of only six children whose winning artwork saw off nearly 1,000 entries in the Pharmaton Kiddi Health 'Design a T-shirt' competition. She is now enjoying her new bicycle and safety helmet. The judges found one outstanding entry in each of the four different age categories. Caoimhe produced the winning entry in the 6-9 year old age group.
Other winning entries came from children in Cork, Cavan and Dublin. Pharmaton's Louise White said: “We were delighted with the level of interest and number of entries in the competition again this year. Now in its second year the competition was extremely well received by pharmacies and consumers alike and we would like to thank all of those who got involved and massive congratulations to our worthy winners."
Pharmaton Kiddi Health is designed to support children's everyday health. The competition asked children to design a T-shirt based on their favourite way to stay active. Entries varied from GAA-themed designs to the more holistic kid’s yoga designs. Some stars of the future based their designs on the national football and rugby squads, while others focused more on their own sports teams, designing T-shirts with their local county colours and strips.
