TAFE NSW | Landscaping Challenge | Sydney Royal Easter Show
Over 100 talented landscaping construction apprentices showed off their skills to the public at the 2012 TAFE NSW Landscaping Challenge at this year's Sydney Royal Easter Show.
The next-generation landscapers who are current TAFE NSW apprentices, were grouped into four teams and designed and built the exhibition centrepiece for the Great Aussie Backyard -- a showcase of gardening inspiration, products and green-fingered advice.
Using the theme "A Courtyard Garden", the garden displays were constructed pre‐show and then judged by a panel of industry experts, including TV gardening personality Jody Rigby, on Thursday 5 April 2012. The challenge required all displays to include a paved area, grassed area, water feature, barbecue, seating area and elevated areas. The general public were also able to vote.
The judges' decision for 2012 TAFE NSW Landscaping Challenge:
1st Yallah Campus, TAFE NSW -- Illawarra Institute
2nd Ryde Campus, TAFE NSW -- Northern Sydney Institute
3rd Padstow Campus, TAFE NSW -- South Western Sydney Institute
4th Richmond Campus, TAFE NSW -- Western Sydney Institute
The People's Choice Award, presented on Friday 13 April to TAFE NSW -- Northern Sydney Institute.
