Grimsargh Field Day 2011 - Scarecrow Results

 

What a fantastic range of scarecrows there were!

 

Everyone was surprised and delighted by the number and quality of the scarecrows that kept popping up in the couple of days leading up to Field Day. 

Judging was a very difficult job, but after a rigorous process of assessing on the basis of techincal/effort, artistic finesse and a slight weighting for those where children had been involved, the results were finally arrived at as:
