Kid's Christmas creations to light up Auckland icon
Primary school children across Auckland will be stretching their imaginations in the hopes of having their Christmas-themed designs transformed into New Zealand's largest laser projection. The regional search kicked off today to find a festive design, created by a primary school class, to become the highlight of a community Christmas event at the TelstraClear Pacific Centre in Manukau on 20 December.
Luke Patterson, TelstraClear Marketing Manager, says this is a unique opportunity for children to see their own creations come to life.
"This is a great way for kids to express their artistic talents using an interesting high-tech medium and for teachers to do something different with their students in the lead up to the holiday season. I can't wait to see the winning design light up the sky.
"This event is the perfect fit for TelstraClear since it combines our community and family focus with leading-edge technology that's designed to connect and entertain people."
The winning class will have their design brought to life as a public animated laser projection and will also receive a $1,000 TelstraClear voucher for their school to use on products and services like TelstraClear's leading high-speed broadband service.
To enter the competition children and teachers can visit http://www.telstraclear.co.nz/go/laser to download an entry form and start a laser-powered Christmas animation adventure.
