Photo Competition - win cash!
The Cambridge Autumn Festival Photo Competition 2023 is now open, proudly supported by our fabulous sponsor PAUA.
This year, the story theme is “A hard day’s work”.
Entry is free. Entries close 3 March 2023.
There are two categories:
Open (open age)
Youth (under 19 years)
Great prizes to be won:
Three prizes for Open Category: First prize $250, Second prize $100, Third prize $50
One prize for Youth Category: $150
One prize for People’s Choice award: $50
The theme “A hard day’s work” – Waipa is a wonderful place to do business, and we have such a range of workplaces here – cafes and shops, farms, industry, offices, students at work, people working from home, and much more. There are so many different directions someone creative could take this theme. And the beautiful thing about these photographs is that together they create a historical record, a snapshot in time of Waipa and our people.
The top photographs will be displayed in the Cambridge Town Hall during the first weekend of the Festival – with an opportunity for viewers to vote for a new “People’s Choice” award.

What do you think of this 11-year-old's chosen cause?
A Whangamatā 11-year-old has placed his award-winning mullet up for auction to raise money for Starship Hospital.
Kahū Hall, who named himself ‘Taco’ when he was three years old, is selling his mullet after growing it for three years. Taco said he was motivated to raise the money after his friend Evie Taylor stayed at Starship Hospital for a heart operation.
