Beauty and the Beast tickets for this years ‘Seasonal Picture’ winner.

A local school pupil has won a competition to have her artwork used as the official Christmas card by the Leader of Flintshire County Council.

Third place Kirsty Roberts, Councillor Aaron Shotton, Leader of Flintshire County Council, winner Annabelle Creaney, Councillor Bernie Attridge, Deputy Leader of Flintshire Council and second place Nadia Tas.

Every year Councillor Aaron Shotton invites schoolchildren to draw a seasonal picture with the winning design being printed professionally.

This year it was the turn of Golftyn County Primary School pupils and Councillor Shotton made a special visit to present the prize to year six winner Annabelle Creaney.

Annabelle receives tickets for Beauty and the Beast; the roll ‘n’ roll pantomime at Clwyd Theatr Cymru.

Second and third place went to ten-year old Nadia Tas and Kirsty Roberts also aged 10.

Councillor Shotton said:

“The standard was very high and I was very impressed with the creativity of all the designs. The pupils made a huge effort and it was very difficult to choose a winner. The card will be sent out to all Councillors and Government representatives including the First Minister for Wales, Carwyn Jones AM.”
