The school, which is located near the developer’s Bertone Gardens development submitted a range of creative designs, including Poppy’s from Year 4, which was eventually crowned the winner.

Poppy’s design of a snowman surrounded by Christmas trees, presents, and festive hats was chosen by David Wilson Homes because it perfectly encapsulated the joys of the season and earned her an art set to further foster her artistic ability.

Aimee Hindwood, Year 5 Class Teacher and Art Lead at Hayfield Cross C of E Primary School, said: “This competition was a wonderful opportunity for the children at Hayfield Cross to spread some Christmas cheer. We are all very proud of Poppy’s design and we hope everyone enjoys receiving their Christmas cards as much as we enjoyed designing them!”
