Summary
Young environmental filmmakers aged ten to thirteen in Waimakariri are invited to compete in a creative challenge where they make short films showcasing everyday ways to protect the planet—like planting trees, saving wetlands, or ditching plastic. Inspired by past local hits, their winning entries will premiere at a regional awards night and compete on an international stage at the One Earth Young Film Makers Contest in Chicago. Plus, top prizes include cash, books, festival tickets, and global exposure—with entries open June 20 and closing September 1. Don’t miss the parallel Focus for Future competition run by Lincoln Envirotown, also accepting films by September 1, with its own awards ceremony on September 17.
