The annual Think Kind Student Competition, run by the NZ Vegetarian Society (NZVS), is open to entries for 2025! This competition offers the opportunity for students from year 0 to 13 to submit any form of creative work which expresses the importance of kindness towards animals and our planet.
The grand prize is $1000, which goes towards the winning students' school, kindly provided by Quorn NZ and the NZVS. Additionally, each entrant receives a certificate and a voucher from Hell Pizza, and the top 10 entrants receive a prize pack, containing products from our amazing sponsors.
Past entries have included artwork depicting ways we can be kind to animals, poems, short stories, home-made films, and many more! The 2024 grand prize winner was Harriet Mason, a year 6 student from St Albans Primary in Christchurch. Her pencil drawing of a chimpanzee included the message 'Say No to Palm Oil'.
NZVS President, Julia Clements, says of the event, ' It's an excellent opportunity for young kiwis to think about how we can better promote kindness towards all animals. In previous years we've seen such creative interpretations of what this looks like, and it's always exciting to see the way students interact with the ideas of sustainability and reducing animal cruelty. We hope that, as in previous years, we get a lot of community support when it comes to the voting stage later this year!'
The closing date for submissions is August 17th. The NZVS judging panel will then select the top 20 entries, which will be go live for public voting on World Vegetarian Day (October 1st). The top voted entry will be revealed as the overall winner a month later on World Vegan Day (1st November)!
The competition would not be possible without the generous support of our sponsors: Quorn NZ, Hell Pizza, Solomons Gold, TranzAlpine Honey NZ, Panna Soaps, Goodbye, Trade Aid.
The intention of the NZVS is to increase vegetarianism (including veganism), to reduce cruelty to animals, improve human health, protect the environment and preserve world resources. We do this by encouraging plant-based choices through education, information, support, campaigns and research.
The NZ Vegetarian Society is for everybody. We are inclusive of everyone on the vegetarian path, from those reducing their use of animal products through to vegans.
