Primary school pupils from all over Wales are being invited to enter a Christmas card design themed around farming for the Farmers Union of Wales (FUW) Christmas card competition.
The FUW is asking children aged from four to 11 to design a Christmas farming scene for its Christmas cards, which will be sold to raise money for the union’s charity The DPJ Foundation.
FUW president Glyn Roberts said:
“We have already received some fantastic entries but there is still time to submit your design.
“The competition is split into Welsh language and English language categories and you can use any media in your entries, such as crayons, coloured pencils, felt tipped pens or paint which must be completed on an A4 sheet of paper and emailed to us in jpeg format.
“The only stipulation is that it must be a Christmas card showing a farming scene. The competition has been a huge success in the past and we hope we can once again count on the support of our primary schools all over Wales.”
The winner of each category will receive a £30 gift voucher for themselves, a packet of the Christmas cards depicting their design, one day’s free admittance to the 2022 Royal Welsh Winter Fair to receive their prizes and a £50 cheque for their school.
The closing date for entries is Friday, October 28, 2022.
Last year, Annest O’Neill of Ysgol Treferthyr, Criccieth and Rhian Morgan of Ysgol Llandinam, Newtown beat off competition from hundreds of entries from across Wales in the FUW Christmas card design competition.
Their designs were chosen as the winners of the Welsh version and the English version respectively.
