The new technology allows them to access police records on the move, meaning less time at the station and more time in the neighbourhoods, providing a better service to the public.
Wath Children’s officer Pc Craig White, said: “I am delighted that a pupil from this area has won the competition and I look forward to seeing the poster unveiled."
The launch is to take place next Monday at 2.20pm, outside Sandy Gate, Wath, Rotherham.
