Seychelles Sea Turtle Festival Artwork competitions
Seychelles Sea Turtle Festival 2013 
  Competition Winners
Prior to the first Seychelles Sea Turtle Festival in 2013, a competition was run in schools in Seychelles to design a logo for the festival. We received dozens of fantastic entries and it was an extremely tough decision for the judges, but in the end Stephanie Pool's design of a turtle and a person within the body of a turtle was chosen as the winning logo.
Leading up to the the first Seychelles Sea Turtle Festival several competitions were held in schools throughout Seychelles to create artwork inspired by turtles and turtle conservation. Below are photos of a few of the amazing entries we received.
