Children's Art Exbibition
It has been generally agreed that this year's secondary schools' art exhibition sponsored by the Christchurch "Star-Sun", reached possibly the highest overall standard of any of the previous displays. As usual, Nelson district secondary schools were well represented. We were particularly impressed with the drawings of 15-year-old Murray Hedwig (Nelson College), one of whose exhibits (below left) is reproduced here.
