VALE schoolchildren are invited to help spread joy and festive cheer by designing the Vale mayor’s Christmas card for this year.
Entries can be submitted in six categories – nursery, reception, Years 1 to 3, Years 4 to 6, Years 7 to 9, and Years 10 to 12.
The winners of each category will be used to create a Christmas card collection and the money raised from sales will go to the mayor’s charities.

A spokeswoman said: “Your entry can be a photograph, a drawing, a cartoon, a picture – we are open to all ideas. It would be great to have a link to the mayor’s charities, the Penarth and District Lesotho Trust and the Llandough Hospital Orchard Project - and of course Christmas.”
Entries can be submitted to: themayor@valeofglamorgan.gov.uk or by post to: Christmas Card Competition, The Mayor’s Office, the Town Hall, King Square, Barry, CF63 4RW.
A winner will be chosen from each category.
