And the winner is...

...everyone who entered!

It doesn't happen often (or ever perhaps), but the RSPCA NSW Education Team made dreams come true for many people and their pets! They were so impressed with the entrants from the latest 'Van Design' Competition that everyone who entered won the privilege and honour of appearing on the brand new schnazzy Education Van generously donated by Hyundai.

The task? Send in a picture of yourself with your pet.

The prize? Become an intergral part of the design on the Education Van which visits communities across the State and is seen by thousands of people.

All the photos were magically morphed into an amazing mosaic and then made into the shapes of some of the animals that are helped at the RSPCA.

One lucky winner was so excited to see her image on the Education Van that she invited the Team up the Coast to Swansea Public School on Wednesday. Education Officer, Eva, prepared the road trip snacks and slapped on her sunnies, ready for the journey North.

What is an Education Team visit without some Education you may ask? Never fear, as K-2 students were eager participants of the Responsible Pet Owner Program, complete with pooper scooping, amateur Veterinarians and the ever elusive microchip. Following this discussion, students were taken on a tour around the Education Van to see it in all it's glory!

Hello Swansea, what a lovely day to meet!
