Ross congratulates Christmas card design winner
Moray MP Douglas Ross attended assembly at Portgordon Primary School on Friday morning where he congratulated Arwen Mitchell, the winner of his 2017 Christmas Card design competition.
Commenting Douglas said: “I was absolutely delighted with the volume of entries and the imagination shown by the children in their designs. To be honest I found it extremely difficult to pick just one, but someone had to win and I was delighted to be able to present Arwen with a television, along with some festive shortbread and a mug featuring her design of animals in a festive scene!”
He added: “The winning design has now been put onto my Christmas card along with the designs of the three runners up and will be sent out as my official Christmas card. The four designs which feature on my card come from all parts of Moray and included local iconic scenes, the children’s own images from Christmas and the winning design even included a Dalmatian, Arwen must have known I had a soft spot for them!”
“I’m very grateful to all the pupils for taking part in the competition and their excellent designs and I would also like to thank all the sponsors who generously supported the competition”
Douglas also visited the schools to present prizes to the runners-up on Friday to Lauren Brown, Applegrove; Cailin McMurdo, Aberlour and Scott Davidson, Cullen Primary School.
