Isla Manning is winner of James Wild MP's Christmas Card Competition
James has announced that Isla Manning, age 7, a pupil at North Wootton Academy has won the competition to design his official Christmas Card for 2020.
The winning design which features Father Christmas, Rudolph, a snowman, and a Christmas tree will be printed with Isla’s name on the cards. They will be sent to the Prime Minister, local residents, community groups, and businesses across the community. Isla received a framed winners certificate and a voucher for a local toy shop.
Commenting on the competition, James said:
“I was impressed by the tremendous response and I’m very grateful to everyone who entered with so many brilliant entries from schools across North West Norfolk. It was a tough choice but Isla’s lovely painting stood out with its depiction of the classic Christmas characters.”
Over 150 pupils entered the competition from primary schools across the constituency and James decided to select two runners up - Max Forrest from Ashwicken Church of England Primary School and Isabelle Arthurton from Rudham Church of England Primary Academy. Their designs will feature on some of the cards sent by James.
The competition was run with the kind support of Prontaprint, St James Street, King’s Lynn which will print the cards featuring the winning design.
