2012 WoW Badge Design Competition
2012's WoW badge design competition is now live, and we're delighted to confirm that the theme is 'AROUND THE WORLD'. Each winner will have his or her design transformed into the monthly WoW badges worn by hundreds of thousands of children across the country.
Our annual WoW badge design competition is one of the UK's biggest art competitions, with over 150,000 primary school children taking part last year. The deadline for receiving entries will be 16 March. More details can be found on our competition page.
