"La France" by keely Newcombe

School year

School

Bribie Island State High School

Concept statement

I have chosen to use blue birds to represent the freedom and originality of France, I have also chosen the Eiffel Tower - a famous monument of France to make it clearer for the chosen subject. I was going for a cute and original design that i would wear.

Where in the world would you go to and why?

I would love to go to Italy. As Italy is one of the oldest cities, it has accumulated a lot of history and beauty. Italy is also a great destination for food and culture that I would love to experience.

Favourite stuff?

I love a variety of things ... my favourite thing would be my newly born cockatiel, which I got to see as a egg to a ugly little featherless baby to a gorgeous healthy young bird. I love the night, when all the lights come on show and the really early morning when the sun rises and the frost is in the air. I love all food and all the little hints of flavour.

Three people you'd take to a desert island?

My best friend FELICITY to cheer me up and have fun, My MUM and DAD for comfort and to feel safe because there's nothing like family to have with you.

What will you be doing in 10 years?

In the next 10 years I will be finishing school and hopefully going on a exchange program next year. I will be trying to get my career on track, so I'll probaly be going to tafe and joining the airforce to become a pilot so I can travel for a living.

Why should you win this competition?

Winning this competion would really help pay for the exchange program and help my parants make my trip possible.
