RESULTS (at last!)

After much deliberation, the secret judging panel chose Vrithik Mehta's picture of his teddy as this year's overall winner...

This one of Gabby Tam, submitted by Ingrid Tsang, was a close second - and we felt that Ingrid deserved an extra prize to share with her dorm-mates, since so many of them had helped to pose in her photos.

Additional runners-up prizes were awarded to 'ninja reader' Adrian Lee...

... and Gabby Tam/Katherine Ye (an inseparable team, Katherine in the pictures and Gabby taking them)...

Thanks to everyone who took part! I would have liked to give a prize to everyone, but the Library's budget is not limitless.

I hope we can do this again next year....

Highlights of the inaugural competition

Here is the montage of this year's entries that I posted on CIS Hangzhou TV a few days ago.... (Results to be announced tomorrow morning in Assembly.)

Slideshow compiled by Mr Murphy; photographs by numerous members of the CIS Hangzhou community.

The music here is an adaptation of Pharrell Williams' Happy by Youtuber Adreanna Pankow.

A further postcript

Coach Mentor and football superstar Thebes Law apparently took these rather spectacular views on a trip to Taiwan during the last vacation,.... but he only just got around to sending them to me. Still, it makes a nice final photo post for this year's blog. Thanks, Thebes.

I particularly like this one:

But the rest are pretty cool, too. I want to visit this place!

RESULTS - no more waiting!

Ah, sorry - I was guilty of a Lionel Hutzian misrepresentation with my punctuation there.

I meant.....

RESULTS?  NO - more waiting!!

Because of our special assemblies with Lea Waters this week, we haven't had an opportunity to hand out prizes for this competition. We'll aim to do this on Monday. 

And I just posted a little slideshow of the highlights of this year's competition over on the CIS Hangzhou TV Station.....
