News release from City of Barrie
The City of Barrie’s 7th annual I Love Barrie contest was open to elementary and secondary school-aged students across the city, and the winners have been selected. This year’s entries were judged on originality, positivity and expressiveness.
“It warms my heart to see the Barrie pride beaming from our youth,” said Mayor Alex Nuttall. “The community’s involvement with the I Love Barrie contest is a reminder of why we choose to call Barrie home, and I hope all of this year’s participants are extremely proud of their efforts.”
The 2023 I Love Barrie contest winners are:
Artwork winner: Layla Maxwell, Grade 4, Sister Catherine Donnelly Catholic School
Class winner: Grade 2/3 class (Mrs. Macdonald’s class), St. Bernadette Catholic School
The winners’ names will be shared in the City’s This Week in Barrie feature in the Barrie Advance and the students will also be invited to an upcoming Barrie City Council meeting.
