We are delighted to announce that Hazelhurst Community Primary School is the winner of our cARTime competition following a three week long public vote. 

The ‘out-of-this-world’ themed design received a total of 570 votes, meaning the school have won a £500 donation for art supplies. 

Run to celebrate the launch of our new specialist 4x4 centre in Bury, over 100 pupils aged from four to 11 took part in the competition, with a three-week public vote on Facebook deciding the overall winner.

The competition, which generated almost 1,500 votes, saw budding artists and aspiring designers from Fir Bank Primary(Oldham), Wesley Methodist Primary(Radcliffe) and Hazelhurst Primary School(Ramsbottom) go head-to-head to design a car’s exterior by drawing on specially wrapped full sized Range Rovers

cartime’s managing director, Matt Kay said: “We were extremely impressed with all of the designs produced by the students and well done to Hazelhurst on winning the competition. Just 43 votes separated the winner and runner-up so it was extremely close.

“cARTime was inspired by the ethos of Children’s Art Week, which encourages children and young people to enjoy fun creative activities that they might not have tried before - we certainly hope none of the participants have ever drawn on a car!

 “The overall competition has been very well received and all of the schools said the students thoroughly enjoyed decorating the vehicles which is great to hear. 

“The cars received a lot of attention in our showroom and I’d like to thank all of the students who participated.”
