| The dock tower at Christmas - Andrada's winning entry |
GRIMSBY MP Lia Nici has revealed the design she has chosen for her 2020 Christmas card.
it was created by Andrada Ivascu, a Year 5 pupil at Littlecoates Primary Academy which held a design-a-card competition.
Its title is: Magic at the Dock Tower on Christmas Eve.
Says the MP: "In total, 103 children at the academy took part, each one creating a beautiful depiction of Grimsby at Christmas."
'Merry Fishmas' was a popular headline, causing a few chuckles around St Andrew's Hospice whose nurses and staff members judged the competition.
Christina Cook, communications and marketing manager at St Andrew's, said: "We were over the moon to have been asked to judge the competition, although it was difficult to choose a winner when the entries were all so good!
"We finally came to a decision and think Andrada's winning entry looks brilliant on the front of the card."
The picture has been professionally framed and presented to Andrada as part of her prize which also includes a craft kit, art set and a family pass for the Fishing Heritage Centre.
Winners from each year group were presented with a craft kit and certificate and the runners-up were awarded a colouring set.
Continues Ms Nici: "Thank you to Neville Wilkinson, Headteacher and his team at Littlecoates Primary Academy, for organising the competition at their school, to all the children for taking part and to the staff and nurses at St Andrew's Hospice for their judging efforts."
The winners and runner-up pictures will go on display at Freeman Street Market over the Christmas period, and St Andrew's Hospice will be auctioning A4 card prints of the winners and runners-up, along with an A3 print of the overall winning picture.
