Each year, like many other members, I run a competition with schools for them to design a Christmas card. This year I had the usual excellent contributions from students throughout the electorate. All the designs are displayed in the window of my electorate office. They cover two full windows. Unfortunately, even though the standard was so fantastic, there could only be one winner. This year's winner was Mia Pennington of class 5L at Belmont Christian College. Mia's design is a bright, colourful and sparkly collage which will be featured on my Christmas card and on my Christmas calendar.

A number of other students also put in excellent artwork. We the also awarded some highly commended to the following: Imogen May in year 5 at Belmont Christian College, Lara De Mello in year 2 at Charlestown Public School, Anna Hughes in year 6 at Floraville Public School, Isabell Field in year 6 at Jewells Primary School, Madison Homan in year 3 at St Brendan's Catholic Primary School, Lake Munmorah, Kaitlyn Allen in year 5 at St Mary's Catholic School, Warners Bay and all the students from Swansea Public School. Congratulations to everyone. You presented some excellent artwork and I thank you very much.
