The imagery encapsulates the title "Evolving & Adapting" perfectly. The cover tells a story of the past year, and the challenges that the school (as well as all of us) faced head-on.

A creative, eye-catching masterpiece. Excellent use of the pupils showing them in activities with good use of Photoshop/design to bring them all together. A magazine cover that stands out and on-brand.

I love this use of artwork on the cover. The artwork is a perfect metaphor for navigating, planning, and "charting a course" for the future with a new strategic plan. I really appreciate the creativity here, too. It is not easy to capture the essence and meaning of a strategic plan on a magazine cover. Well done!

Sometimes less is more, and this cover demonstrates that perfectly. A simple design with beautiful artwork that really pops out makes this cover look sophisticated. A gorgeous tribute to this student!

Showcasing a pupils work as a front cover always stands out — this cover clearly directs the reader to key articles. A simple but powerful front cover.
