                                       Lucky teen wins dream trip
                                       Last Tuesday, a teenager won a dream holiday, just by going shopping.
                                       Jane Robson, a student at Kingsford School, was the 1,000,000th customer
                                       at Megabuys supermarket and she won a trip for two to New Zealand. ‘It’s
                                       amazing! It’s the  irst time I’ve ever won anything,’ says Jane. And it seems
                                        it was the perfect prize for her, too. ‘I’m so lucky. I won a trip to the country
                                        which I’ve always wanted to visit,’ she says. Sixteen-year-old Jane is going on
                                        the trip with her dad, but she feels sorry for the other customers. ‘It doesn’t
                                        seem fair,’ says Jane. ‘I only went in there for some chewing gum and all of a
                                        sudden I was the person who won the trip.’
                                        1st prize for teen artist
                                        Gilford Council announced the winner of their wall design competition last
                                        night. They wanted local artists to design something to go on the huge north
                                        wall of the new town hall. Thousands of artists entered the competition but
                                        the artist who won isn’t famous. He’s a student called Tim Blake and he’s just
                                         thirteen. ‘The design which Tim created is colourful and fun, and it’s just the
                                         sort of image that we wanted to brighten up the town,’ says Leona Wilkins,
                                         the organiser of the competition. Tim was really surprised with his win and
                                         wants to enter more art competitions now. Tim’s design is going to appear on
                                         the new town hall, but he also won £5,000. He’s going to give some money
                                         to his brother, but he’s not sure what he wants to do with the rest of it yet.
