NEWS ARTICLE ARCHIVESGOCUBE secures another signage awardThe Western Sydney, Signcraft regional final, hosted by WorkSkills Australia, took place on Saturday 20th October at Mount Druitt Tafe. WSA, a not-for-profit organisation, has been dedicated to providing a platform for exhibiting the skills and works of talented, young, Australian apprentices and trainees for the last 25 years. The gathering of enthusiastic, apprentice Signwriters were required to produce a professionally signwritten, 1000mm x 600mm, panel from a, supplied, A4 sketch. The final submission involved construction of lettering, colour matching, vinyl work and brush work. All of which had to be completed within OH&S guidelines. With all entrants vying for a place in the nationals, competition was tough. The Signcraft category was won by Tracey-Lee Googh of GOCUBE. "I am really excited to have won this round and am looking forward to the Nationals." Tracey-Lee has gone from strength to strength in this, traditionally, male dominated industry. Last year Tracey-Lee collected a bronze in the 'Work by a 1st Year Apprentice' category at the Australian Sign and Graphic Association awards. Alison Newham, GOCUBE's director, has provided continuing support for Tracey-Lee, and is thrilled, once again by her achievements. "Tracey-Lee has shown a great flair for signwriting and we are very proud of her success." |
