About the competition of 2009.

Across the south-west, local authorities set up their very own film animation competitions. We had the Noscars, the Wiscas, the Swiscars and many others, from Cornwall up to Gloucestershire. Some competitions had an historical or geographical theme, some a Literacy focus. North Somerset's theme was "Around the World in 80 Days." Somerset's theme was "Making the Right Choices."

Teachers set to work with their classes, and schools submitted some excellent animations. The final red-carpet events took place over the summer 2009 and some school teams of animators went home with armfuls of well deserved prizes.

See the animations: the best of the best!
