Last autumn the St Matthew's children campaigned for more outdoor seating (they're a hardy, Covid-conscious lot). The PTA heard their pleas and paid for this fine set of tables, made from long-lasting recycled plastic.

SHORTLIST KEYSTAGE 2: Claudia (Hazel class)
When a picture forces you to ponder, particularly when there are human shapes that aren’t immediately identifiable, then the photographer and the viewer are connecting - this is the purpose of the medium. Claudia has decided to photograph this scene from an unusual perspective requiring us to consider what is happening in the moment. (Martin Bond)

SHORTLIST KEYSTAGE 2: Maeve (Cedar class)
The framing is brilliant with emphasis of focus to the left. The cropping of the extreme left flower shouldn’t work but it does as it encourages the eye to look across to the right. (Martin Bond)

SHORTLIST KEYSTAGE 2: Victor (Rowan class)
Who doesn’t like robins? I particularly liked the blurred background with what looks like grasses providing wonderful texture. A little too tightly cropped at the bottom of the frame though. (Martin Bond)

SHORTLIST KEYSTAGE 1: Arabella (Nursery)
You don’t always ’take’ photographs, sometimes you ‘make’ them and this is definitely one of those pictures. I love whimsical photographs and this one made me smile. A tiny bit too much blur on the left. (Martin Bond)

SHORTLIST KEYSTAGE 1: Martha (Larch class)
This has been nicely framed using the golden ratio where a photograph is divided into nine rectangles along two horizontal and vertical lines with important elements along the lines and at their intersections. There is a nice bokeh which helps to isolate the subject. (Martin Bond)
