The Kanwal Kids do a great job in the Annual schools web design awards

A short while back I had an email from a guy in Australia, his name is Bill Gillespie.

Bill is a teacher, and a pretty good one by the looks of things. The children at Kanwal Public school have entered a website design competition, the theme for the competition is water, and the children have specifically chosen water safety as the theme to work with.

The children are aged 10 and 11 years old and have been learning how to handcode html and CSS within Dreamweaver with Bill's guidance and they have done extremely well, lots of talent there for sure.

The final entry The image to the left shows the final website. I think you'll agree that they have done a fantastic job and deserve congratulating on both the presentation of the website and the graphics they have made to get the importance of the theme across, great job guys!

Not only have they completed the design but they have also been out and about interviewing the relevant authorities on water safety; so the website will not only look good but carry important information on water safety in general.

Something tells me that Bill might be able to sit back and put his feet up in the not to distant future while the kids just get on with it, excellent work.
