We are pleased to announce (宣布) the results of our competition to create a new school festival for students to celebrate this year. This competition, which we have had twice, has been a huge success. But this year, we have had more entries(参赛作品) than ever before!
We have received many wonderful suggestions, including one that suggested there should be a festival of shoes! This was certainly a creative idea, but not surprisingly, our judges(裁判) liked other suggestions more!
The winning suggestion was from Henry Chan, who suggested that there should be a festival of bicycles. It was the judges' favourite. Henry, who is in Grade Eight, said that he went to school by bicycle every day and enjoyed taking bicycle trips very much. He added that so many public bicycles were in use in our city that it would be a shame not to celebratethem.
As part of the festival a bicycle trip will be organized in the city. Then students will hold a ten-metre bicycle riding competition in which anyone who can ride the slowest wins. What's more, you students are called on to ride bicycles to school as often as possible.
The Bicycle Festival will start on June 18th and last two days. We hope you will take part in the festival and do your bit to protect our environment!
