Schools’ Christmas card competition

 

The union is asking children aged 4 to 11 to design a Christmas scene depicting a farming theme for its Christmas cards which will be sold to raise money for the FUW president’s chosen charity Cancer Research Wales.

 

FUW president Emyr Jones said: “The competition is open to all primary schoolchildren and will be judged in both Welsh language and English language categories.

 

“The children can use crayons, coloured pencils, felt tipped pens or paint in their entries which must be completed on an A4 sheet of paper.

 

The winner of each category will receive a £30 gift voucher, a packet of the Christmas cards depicting their design, one day’s free admittance to the 2012 Royal Welsh Winter Fair to receive their prizes and a £50 cheque for their school.

 

The winning entries, together with a selection of other entries, will be displayed at the FUW stand during the Winter Fair (November 26-27).

 

The closing date for entries to the competition is October 26. 

 

The pupil’s name, class number, school name and home address must be included on all entries which should be posted or delivered to the FUW, Llys Amaeth, Plas Gogerddan, Aberystwyth, Ceredigion, SY23 3BT, and marked “Schools Competition” or emailed to anne.birkett@fuw.org.uk
