ALISON PENFOLD ENLISTS PRESCHOOLERS IN NEW GRADUATION CERTIFICATE DESIGN COMPETITION - 3 October, 2025
Federal Member for Lyne, Alison Penfold MP, is encouraging preschool-aged children from across the Lyne electorate to take part in a unique opportunity to have their artwork featured on her new preschool graduation certificates.
Ms Penfold will judge and select four different artworks to appear on the certificate, which will be presented throughout the electorate at all upcoming preschool graduations at the end of the year.
“As a new member of parliament, I was unsure what the preschool certificates should look like and thought, ‘Who better to decide than our preschoolers themselves?”.
“To the many mums and dads of preschoolers across the Lyne electorate, please send in your children’s most creative, colourful artwork on the theme of nature. This could be drawings of bugs and insects, dinosaurs or dogs, butterflies in the garden or magical rainbows.
“Let their beautiful imaginations go wild. I can’t wait to see the designs and showcase local creations.”
The graduation certificate is an A4 size in landscape.
Please submit entries by 11.59 pm AEST on Monday, 3 November 2025. Email artwork to alison.penfold.mp@aph.gov.au or post to PO Box 244, Wauchope, NSW, 2446. Please include the child's name, their parent or guardian's name, and the best contact number or email with each submission.
