After plenty of deliberating, Murdock is thrilled to crown Charlotte, a grade 4 student from Saanich!
“We were thrilled to receive more than 70 entries—and each one was creative, fun and really put us in the festive spirit,” said Murdock.
“Charlotte’s magical snow globe design really captured our attention. It was bright and beautiful artwork that we’re so pleased to feature on our holiday cards this year.”
Charlotte will receive a special prize for her efforts, in addition to a signed holiday card from the Mayor.
The District will also feature her design in an upcoming holiday social media post, so the entire community can enjoy it and cheer her on!
“Thank you to everyone who took the time to share their work with us, and to the parents and caregivers who helped submit their entries,” added Murdock.
He also said they’d like to make this a holiday tradition and looks forward to reintroducing it next year.
Congratulations, Charlotte!
