The annual Christmas card competition is on again, with preschool and primary students invited to design the Member for Monaro John Barilaro’s card.
The winner will get to see their design distributed far and wide, to people across the Monaro.
The competition gives children the chance to showcase their creativity and talent.
Member for Monaro John Barilaro said there was a great deal of creativity in the electorate that he felt needed to be captured.
“This is a wonderful opportunity for students to let their creative abilities flow,” Mr Barilaro said.
"The children will have a few weeks to send in an entry so I hope that lots of schools will take up the challenge and get involved."
The winning design will front Mr Barilaro’s official Christmas card, printed onto hundreds of cards sent to organisations and individuals.
This year’s theme is ‘Christmas in the Future’.
Entries should have the artist’s name, age and school should be clearly marked on the reverse of each entry.
All entries must be sent to 213 Crawford Street (PO Box 998) Queanbeyan NSW 2620, and received by 5pm on Monday, November 21, 2016.
First prize winner will receive a $100 gift voucher, second prize $50 and third prize $25.
A presentation for the winning entry will occur at a convenient time in December.
