In the next few weeks, entries will be processed and judged, with announcements in the first week of November.
Looking at the entries we have received, it will be a difficult job for the judges!
So... good luck and thank you to all the Tasmanian students who entered the challenge.

The cost of living, mental health issues, anti-social behaviour, poor planning and lack of infrastructure, access to health services and professionals, youth suicide and teenage pregnancies, and climate change, are just some of the key concerns of the Tasmanian community.
The views of Tasmanians are contained in a report titled What the Community Said.
The report was released on 3 August by the Tasmania Together Progress Board and summarises the key findings from major community consultations undertaken as part of the 10 Year Review of Tasmania Together.
2 August 2011
On Wednesday 3 August we launch our report that outlines what the community said during the 10 Year Review of Tasmania Together. The issues that are important to Tasmanians now and in the future and that will be used to help re-shape the Tasmania Together plan are outlined in this report. Check it out on our website after the launch at 11am..... It might give you some ideas for entering the challenge.

1. Can two different age groups work in a group together?
Yes, but the entry will be judged at the highest category: for example a student in grade 5 and grade 10 putting in a group entry, would be judged at the grade 10 level.
2. Can I enter as an individual and as part of a group?
Yes, you can enter the competition more than once – as an individual or as part of a group... but, each entry will require both an entry form and statement of no more than 200 words, reflecting on the entry piece and its connection to Tasmania Together.
For more information... go to the FAQs section on the website.
