   Fountain Valley High School took home top honours and a $5,000 donation to its art and music programme. Gahr High School won a special design challenge and could see their two original head-to-toe designs featured in a future Hurley collection. The company also launched the Hurley Microphone for Youth T-shirt design competition, where young people can upload their designs to its website and the public can vote on them till March 30.
