The Alun and Joy Jones Awards for Environmental Studies
The awards were established in 1991 in the memory of two people who had worked to keep Chislehurst special for many years.
The intention was and still is to invite students who live in Chislehurst or go to school here to submit creative entries based on a given theme. The theme changes each year so that over a number of years students are able to think about different aspects of Chislehurst - its people, its history, the environment, flora and fauna, and so on.
Prizes are offered to the best entries in each category based on students' ages. Prizes are also given to the schools which submit in total the overall best entries.
The top individual entry receives the Alun Jones trophy to hold for one year and the top school receives the Joy Jones trophy.

Our thanks to Bruce Hurn, who ran the awards for many years, and to Donna Bompas, who runs them now and has done so for the last 10 years.
