Once again, it has been a joy for my wife Fiona and I to look through all of the wonderful entries to my annual Mid Norfolk Christmas Card Competition. There have been so many entries of an extremely high standard.

I am especially delighted to announce that the winner was Teigan-Jo Hawkes, age 13, of Fred Nicholson School – who will receive a £20 book token this year.

Dakota Walker (age 7, Great Dunham Primary School), Lizzy Lovett (age 8, Necton Primary School) and Elena Voicu (age 6, Great Ellingham Primary School) will all receive £10 book tokens – as my ‘Highly Commended’ close runners-ups.

I look forward to picking up their book tokens from the brilliant Kett’s Books in Wymondham – and to sending them across to the children early in the new year.

Thank you to all the schools and children who participated this year.
