Pupil wins design competition

A Blackburn pupil has won her former school an ipad after winning a logo design competition.

Fatema Latif, a former pupil at St Silas Primary School, Blackburn, came up with the winning design of a new logo for Blackburn with Darwen Children’s Local Safeguarding Board.

The brief was to design a logo which represents children being kept safe. Dozens of children entered but Fatema’s design was picked.

The winning design was decided by a judging panel made up of members from the Local Safeguarding Adults Board and the Local Safeguarding Children’s Board.

Councillor Frank Connor, Executive Member for Children’s Services, and Linda Clegg, Director of Children’s Services, presented the award to Fatema’s brother, nine year old Daiyaan as Fatema’s moved on to high school.
