The winning design for an official Christmas card has been produced by an adult learning student from Tangmere.
This year’s winner, Mary Rotton, is enrolled on a calligraphy course and has studied on a number of other courses with the West Sussex Adult and Community Learning Service.
The Service’s annual Christmas card competition was launched in July and invited all students to design an official card for the service.
Mary has won a 10-week adult learning course of her choice, a £20 voucher and copies of her winning Christmas card, with its design of festive winter flowers.
The runner-up prize went to Samuel Martin, from Crawley, who won a £10 gift voucher.
The competition was judged by staff from the Adult and Community Learning Service.
West Sussex County Council Leader Henry Smith said: “I’d like to thank everyone who entered the competition. As ever, we received a very high standard of entrants, making the judging a very difficult task.”
Cabinet Member for Adults’ Services Peter Catchpole said: “Everyone can gain creative skills with the learning service, which offers a range of artistic courses, from Chinese brush painting to jewellery making, and card making to upholstery.”
