Earlier this year, the Bermuda National Trust invited students to make videos to celebrate Earth Day. They were asked to make 2-4 minute films on ‘The Ocean Around Us’, ‘A Green Hero’ or ‘Sustainability and Local Food’.
The environmental awareness and creativity shown by the young filmmakers was quite remarkable. I’ve posted Somersfield Academy student Meinhardt Rentrup’s winning video above but I urge you to visit the BNT website and spend a few minutes watching some of the other excellent entries. The best videos will also be shown on VSB 11 on May 8 at 10 am and 9 pm and May 11 at 8 pm.
My daughter Kayley didn’t win a prize but I’m still proud of her effort (see below) which focused on local food.
