Yesterday I announced the
winner of my annual Christmas card competition in Westminster. There were many
entries from primary and first schools all across the constituency, but after a
lot of consideration the winner was Brooke Foster from Prudhoe Castle First
School who designed a fantastic Christmas snowglobe for her entry. The runners-up were Lily Macaulay from
Ovingham Church of England School for her brilliant number 10 door design, and
Freya Villiers-Stuart of Whitfield Church of England First School which
featured a great ice-skating penguin.
The winning design will be
featured on the front of my Christmas card which will be sent all around the
constituency, as well as to the Prime Minister. Brooke, Lily and Freya have
been invited to Kielder Forest next week where they will see the Kielder tree
being felled, and Brooke will also be invited to Westminster in December where
we will see the Christmas tree completely decorated in place in College Green.
Thank you so much to
everyone for their entries and to all the teachers for their help. I really
enjoyed looking through them all- every single design was brilliant!
Congratulations to Brooke, Lily and Freya, and I look forward to seeing the
finished card and to meeting Brooke next month.
